In recent years, leading professional fields like marketing have leaned heavily on phrases like, “content is king,” but if you’ve been paying attention – not just to marketing, but to many other growing fields, including eCommerce, healthcare, and finance – the real reigning force is not content, but data. Big data, which is itself a consequence of other technology, gives us the tools to interpret our actions, to strategize and analyze in new and more objective ways.

Let’s say, for example, that the objective is to “increase engagement.” The key results might then be “simplify user journey A” and “enhance feature alpha.”. OKRs can be used to create cascading goals—goals that are systematically linked.
