Corporate Strategy

The Corporate Strategy in Inspire is customizable. Not every organization will have the same layout as the example below.

Teams and Individuals can align their Individual and Team Objectives to the Corporate Strategy to show progress as it contributes to the overall strategy.

The example views in the screenshots below will show:

  • Strategic Categories/Departments: (Examples) Marketing, Learning, Sales and Product
  • Company Objectives: Shown in blue boxes in the Strategy view
  • Long Term Key Results: Long-Term Key Results (LTKRs) are usually set for a full year or longer to be accomplished. 
  • Corporate Quarterly Key Results: (CKRs) break down the LTKRs usually into Quarters or Trimesters. 

Note: Corporate Quarterly Key Results (CKRs) can align up to Long Term Key Results to show progress for the year. 

Choosing a Display / View in Corporate Strategy

You can select from a few different displays to view your Corporate Strategy. To adjust the display or view, navigate to the Gear icon in the upper right corner of the screen, then select one of the 3 display options.

By Disabling these settings- you will only see the department Objectives and Key Results with alignment. 

Corporate Objectives and Corporate Key Results from Client Success in the example are showing. No other departments will show.
