North helps organisations execute their strategy and goals by creating a culture of measuring progress and focusing on outcomes.
1. Pick a KPI you want to improve
For most teams this is will one of Sales//Growth/Acquisition, Activation, Retention, and Monetisation/Revenue.
2. Create a Team goal to optimise the KPI
Teams plan and prioritise their goals to move this metric

4. Plan Initiatives to move the needle
Initiatives in the North are where you define a high-level project roadmap to achieve your goal. Initiatives are tracked in the context of the goal and key results, that way you can easily see what work is connected to which goals

5. Check in to keep everyone updated
Goal check-ins help everyone stay updated on the progress made. Check-ins are an important ritual in your OKR program. Goal owners update goal progress and flag if the goal is on track, behind, or at risk.

7. Conversations happen in the context
Comments and reactions to all initiatives, goals, and key results allow discussions to happen in context. That way you go back and find key decisions made.

8. Goals are closed with outcomes
At the end of each cycle, all owners close their goals with the right outcome. This is a great start to a retrospective discussion on how things went.

9. Celebrate wins with awards
Give awards when goals hit milestones. celebrate small wins with the team!
