Key Result: 100% of employees fill out quarterly OKRs

Pressure creates diamonds:

If your employee is having a rough time at home, increase their workload.

Hey, remember last year when I asked you to come up with your objectives, but then I assigned you wildly different work?

So anyway, since you didn't meet the targets you created for last year, I can't give you a raise.

Stack rank your employees from best to worst for raise allocation and no one bats an eye. Post the same list on a whiteboard and suddenly HR wants to talk to you.
