Getting Started

Everything you need to set up your workspace, understand OKRs, and start driving results with Leemu.

What is Leemu OKR?

Leemu is a modern OKR (Objectives and Key Results) platform that helps teams set ambitious goals, measure progress with quantifiable key results, and stay aligned from company-level strategy down to individual contributors.

Whether you are a startup defining your first quarterly goals or an established organization rolling out OKRs across dozens of teams, Leemu gives you the structure, visibility, and AI assistance you need to succeed.

Key Concepts

Before diving in, here are the core building blocks of the Leemu platform:

Objectives

Qualitative, inspiring goals that describe what you want to achieve. They should be ambitious and time-bound.

Key Results

Measurable outcomes that track progress toward an objective. Each objective typically has 2-5 key results.

Check-ins

Regular progress updates on key results. Check-ins keep the team informed and surface blockers early.

Strategic Goals

High-level company priorities that OKRs align to. They provide context and direction for all teams.

OKR Hierarchy

Leemu supports a three-level hierarchy to ensure alignment across your organization:

Company Objectives
Team Objectives
Personal Objectives

Team objectives can be aligned to company objectives, and personal objectives can be aligned to team objectives. This creates a clear line of sight from individual work to company strategy.

Key Result Types

Each key result has a measurement type and a direction. Leemu supports four types:

Number

e.g. 50 new leads

Percentage

e.g. 95% uptime

Currency

e.g. $100K ARR

Boolean

e.g. Launch v2

Each key result also has a direction:

  • Increase — the value should go up (e.g. revenue from $0 to $100K).
  • Decrease — the value should go down (e.g. churn rate from 5% to 2%).
  • Maintain — the value should stay at or above a threshold (e.g. keep uptime at 99.9%).

User Roles

Leemu has three roles with escalating permissions. Every user belongs to at least one team and has a single workspace role.

Create personal objectives, check in on own key results, and view team/company OKRs.

Team Admin

All Member permissions plus creating team objectives and managing team members.

  2. Invite your team — add members via email or a shareable link.
  3. Set up teams — organize people into logical groups (Engineering, Marketing, etc.).
  4. Define strategic goals — establish high-level priorities for the quarter or year.
  5. Create company objectives — add OKRs aligned to your strategic goals.
  6. Connect integrations — set up Slack notifications and Google Calendar sync.

For Team Members

  1. Accept your invitation — click the link in your email to join the workspace.
  2. Explore the dashboard — review company and team objectives to understand priorities.
  3. Create your first objective — write a personal OKR aligned to your team's goals.
  4. Add key results — define 2-4 measurable outcomes for your objective.
  5. Start checking in — log progress on your key results at least once a week.

Navigation Overview

Once logged in, the main navigation gives you quick access to:

  • Dashboard — your personal overview of objectives and recent activity.
  • Objectives — browse and manage all OKRs (personal, team, company).
  • Teams — view teams, members, and team-level OKRs.
  • Calendar — see OKR cycles, deadlines, and check-in schedules.
  • Reports — access progress reports and analytics.
  • Settings — manage your profile, workspace, and integrations.

Best Practices

Start small

Begin with 1-3 objectives per person. You can always add more as your team builds the OKR habit.

Align vertically

Link personal OKRs to team OKRs, and team OKRs to company OKRs. Alignment creates focus.

Check in regularly

Weekly check-ins keep OKRs alive. Even a short update is better than no update.

Write measurable key results

Every key result should have a number. If you cannot measure it, rethink the key result.

Review and learn

At the end of each cycle, score your OKRs and discuss what you learned. Continuous improvement is the goal.
