OKR (Objectives and Key Results) is a goal-setting framework developed by Grove (1983). An objective is a broad, often qualitative statement. These objectives are broken down into “key results”, which are measurable, specific statements that can be answered as either “yes” or “no”. An example of a musical OKR would be:
Objective - I would like to improve my ability to play Waltzes in C minor.
Key Results -
Can I fluently play the C minor scale in each hand?
Can I play chords in the key of C minor with my left hand, and apply a ¾ rhythm?
Can I improvise in C minor for 1 minute with my right hand?
These statements can be answered with a “yes” or “no”. All of these statements directly influence the learner’s ability to complete the objective. The statements can be replaced as time goes on, so if the objective remains the same, the key results can develop into more difficult and complex variations.
