What it does

A product vision, a quarterly plan and a chain of goals from company down to each team, all pointing the same way. You also see how well the goals line up. Claude generates OKRs for one of five strategy types: growth, retention, revenue, innovation or operational. It cascades them from company level to teams you name, and scores alignment both up and down and across teams. It can also help with a competitive landscape view, a vision document and a team scaling proposal. A Python script builds the cascade, so you need Python available.

Core Capabilities

Capability Description Tool
OKR Cascade Generate aligned OKRs from company to team level okr_cascade_generator.py
Alignment Scoring Measure vertical and horizontal alignment Built into generator
Strategy Templates 5 pre-built strategy types Growth, Retention, Revenue, Innovation, Operational
Team Configuration Customize for your org structure --teams flag

Quick Start

# Growth strategy with default teams
python scripts/okr_cascade_generator.py growth

# Retention strategy with custom teams
python scripts/okr_cascade_generator.py retention --teams "Engineering,Design,Data"

# Revenue strategy with 40% product contribution
python scripts/okr_cascade_generator.py revenue --contribution 0.4

# Export as JSON for integration
python scripts/okr_cascade_generator.py growth --json > okrs.json

Workflow: Quarterly Strategic Planning

Step 1: Define Strategic Focus
Strategy When to Use
Growth Scaling user base, market expansion
Retention Reducing churn, improving LTV
Revenue Increasing ARPU, new monetization
Innovation Market differentiation, new capabilities
Operational Improving efficiency, scaling operations

See references/strategy_types.md for detailed guidance.

Step 2: Gather Input Metrics
{
  "current": 100000,      // Current MAU
  "target": 150000,       // Target MAU
  "current_nps": 40,      // Current NPS
  "target_nps": 60        // Target NPS
}
Step 3: Configure Teams & Run Generator
# Default teams
python scripts/okr_cascade_generator.py growth

# Custom org structure with contribution percentage
python scripts/okr_cascade_generator.py growth \
  --teams "Core,Platform,Mobile,AI" \
  --contribution 0.3
Step 4: Review Alignment Scores
Score Target Action if Below
Vertical Alignment >90% Ensure all objectives link to parent
Horizontal Alignment >75% Check for team coordination gaps
Coverage >80% Validate all company OKRs are addressed
Balance >80% Redistribute if one team is overloaded
Overall >80% <60% needs restructuring
Step 5: Refine, Validate, and Export

Before finalizing:

  • Review generated objectives with stakeholders
  • Adjust team assignments based on capacity
  • Validate contribution percentages are realistic
  • Ensure no conflicting objectives across teams
  • Set up tracking cadence (bi-weekly check-ins)
# Export JSON for tools like Lattice, Ally, Workboard
python scripts/okr_cascade_generator.py growth --json > q1_okrs.json

Best Practices

OKR Cascade
  • Limit to 3-5 objectives per level, each with 3-5 key results
  • Key results must be measurable with current and target values
  • Validate parent-child relationships before finalizing
Alignment Scoring
  • Target >80% overall alignment; investigate any score below 60%
  • Balance scores ensure no team is overloaded
  • Horizontal alignment prevents conflicting goals across teams
Team Configuration
  • Configure teams to match your actual org structure
  • Adjust contribution percentages based on team size
  • Platform/Infrastructure teams often support all objectives
  • Specialized teams (ML, Data) may only support relevant objectives
