About this template

The primary aim of this OKR is to address employee turnover. This involves implementing a mentoring program that would involve 75% of employees. The intention is to establish detailed check-ins and evaluation meetings, build a training structure for potential mentors, create a comprehensive program layout, and promote this mentoring program.

The second objective outlined in the OKR is to decrease employee resignations by 20%. To facilitate this reduction various initiatives have been proposed. These actions include performing exit interviews for insight, initializing an inclusive employee engagement and retention program, amplifying communication channels to reassure employees and provide professional development opportunities.

The third aim of this OKR is to stimulate overall employee engagement with an objective to witness an increment of 10%. To effectively attain this, proposals have been made to instigate systematic open communication meetings, design team-building activities, carry out anonymous employee surveys to discover improvement facets and introduce a recognition and reward program.

But the engagement doesn't end there. We also need to recognize the role of our managers hence the drive to improve their satisfaction ratings by 15%. Initiatives here include feedback sessions for understanding concerns, professional development opportunities, fostering a positive work environment, and having clear communication channels and expectations.
