OKR template to improve time management and task prioritization

public-lib · Published over 1 year ago

The OKR titled "Improve time management and task prioritization" is focused on essentially two things - increasing productivity and making the most out of the time. First, the objective is set to complete 90% of priority tasks. This is roped in with initiatives like setting clear goals and using methods like time blocking and reducing distractions.

The second outcome revolves around setting up an efficient daily schedule. Regular review and editing of the routine for optimal allocation of time, setting designated work times or areas to avoid distractions and prioritizing tasks using urgency as a parameter are the main initiatives.

The third aspect is cutting down time wasted on low-value tasks by half. To achieve this, a root-cause analysis to identify these low-value tasks needs to be done. Optimum delegation of tasks, setting realistic deadlines and streamlining process workflow are the major initiatives.

The last part of the OKR involves participating in a time management training program. Researching a suitable course, enrolling in it, implementing learned techniques, are the primary initiatives. Actively participating in these sessions is pertinent to achieve 100% score.
