Pennaway Get Paid Team OKRs, Q1 2027

OKR presentation example: objectives, key results, owners

An OKR presentation has to prove to the team and its manager that the quarter has a few ambitious objectives, each measured by numbers with a start point, a target and one owner. The Get Paid team at Pennaway, an invented invoicing app for tradespeople, scores last quarter at 0.72, then sets three objectives and nine key results for Q1 2027.

Slide 2 · comparison · Scores last quarter honestly before setting new targets, so the new numbers are calibrated.

Why these three

Q4 showed that tradespeople who get paid by card get paid four days sooner, that payout questions are now our biggest support cost, and that quotes stall before they become jobs. Q1 works on all three, and on nothing else.

WHAT Q4 TOLD US

Card pays faster

Card invoices were paid in a median of 11 days, bank transfer invoices in 18.

Payouts confuse people

420 tickets a month ask where a payout is. Most were already on their way.

Quotes stall

Only 22 percent of quotes are accepted online. The rest are chased by phone.

Fewer, harder goals

Nine key results under three objectives, not six loose ones.

A score of 0.7 on a key result is a good quarter. 1.0 on everything means the targets were too safe.

What we need from other teams

Finance: bank link approval

Sign off the second payment provider by 24 January. Without it, key result 1.2 stops at about 38 percent.

Support: ticket tagging

Tag every payout ticket from 2 January so key result 2.1 is counted the same way all quarter.

Platform: payout webhooks

Real time payout events from the platform team by 7 February, which the status screen for 2.3 depends on.

Marketing: quote emails

A new quote email template in the February send, so customers see the one tap accept button for 3.1.

THE QUARTER

Check-ins and releases by month

Q1 2027

January

Set baselines

Week 1: baselines confirmed for all nine key results. 14 Jan: card reminder emails ship. 24 Jan: finance decision on the bank link provider. 28 Jan: first monthly check-in.

February

Ship the big two

7 Feb: payout webhooks from platform. 18 Feb: payout status screen released to 20 percent of users. 25 Feb: one tap quote accept released to everyone. 25 Feb: mid quarter check-in with a confidence score per key result.

March

Measure and score

4 Mar: payout status to all users. 18 Mar: quote builder simplified. 31 Mar: final measurement. 2 Apr: scoring session and Q2 planning starts.

Not this quarter

Requests we heard and are parking until Q2 planning, with the reason.

01
Recurring invoices

Asked for by 9 percent of users. It does not move any Q1 key result, and the payout work has to land first.

02
Multi currency invoices

Under 2 percent of users invoice outside Australia. Revisit when the export market plan is decided.

03
A new dashboard

The current home screen tested well. A redesign would take the designer away from key results 1.3, 2.3 and 3.3.

Slide by slide

Slide one names the team, the quarter and the planning date. Slide two scores Q4. Slide three explains the focus with four findings, such as card invoices being paid in 11 days against 18 for bank transfer. Slide four puts the three objectives and nine key results on one grid. Slide five is the tracking table with current, target and owner. Slide six lists dependencies on finance, support, platform and marketing. Slide seven lays out the quarter month by month with releases and check-ins. Slide eight names three requests parked until Q2 and why. Slide nine closes on the review cadence: weekly numbers, a monthly check-in, a mid quarter confidence score and a final scoring session.

How to adapt this deck

A company level OKR deck should replace the owner names with team names and add a slide showing which team OKRs ladder up to each company objective. A team new to OKRs should drop the Q4 scoring slide and use slide two to explain the 0 to 1 scale and why 0.7 counts as a good result. A support or operations team, whose work is more steady than a product team's, can keep key results as health measures with a floor rather than a stretch target, and say so on the grid.

What OKR guidance says

Google's re:Work guide describes objectives as ambitious and somewhat uncomfortable, and key results as measurable and graded on a scale of 0 to 1.0, with a sweet spot of 60 to 70 percent. It suggests three to five objectives with about three key results each. What Matters, the OKR resource founded by John Doerr, defines key results as specific, time bound and verifiable. This deck uses three objectives, nine key results and a caption that says 0.7 is a good quarter.

What makes this deck work

Last quarter is scored first

Slide two lists the six Q4 key results with target, achieved and a score from 0 to 1, averaging 0.72. Payout tickets scored 0.3 at 420 a month against 300, and that miss becomes a whole objective on slide four. The new targets are calibrated by the old ones rather than invented.

Every key result has a number and a name

The table on slide five gives all nine key results a current value, a target and one owner, from 15 days to paid down to 10, to quotes sent in 3 minutes rather than 6. Two key results owned by the same person are fine; a key result owned by the team is not.

Dependencies are asked for in week one

Slide six names four things other teams must deliver and the date, such as finance approving the bank link provider by 24 January, and says what happens without it: key result 1.2 stalls at about 38 percent. That turns a hidden risk into a request.

Questions people ask

How many objectives should a team OKR deck have?

Three to five, with about three key results each. Fewer objectives make the quarter easier to explain and protect focus. This deck uses three objectives and nine key results, and a separate slide lists the requests that were deliberately parked so stakeholders can see they were heard.

What is a good OKR score at the end of the quarter?

On a 0 to 1 scale, around 0.6 to 0.7 is usually a good result, because objectives are meant to stretch. Scoring 1.0 on everything suggests the targets were too safe. Say this on the slide, as the table caption here does, so a 0.7 is not read as failure.

Should an OKR presentation show last quarter's results?

Yes, on one slide. Showing target, achieved and score for each key result tells the room the team takes scoring seriously and explains where the new targets came from. Keep the commentary for the misses that changed the plan, like the payout tickets here.

Who should own a key result?

One named person per key result, even when the whole team works on it. The owner reports the number each week and raises a problem early. Shared ownership usually means nobody updates the figure. The same person can own two or three key results across different objectives.

How do I show OKR dependencies in a deck?

Give each dependency its own card with the team, what they need to deliver, the date, and which key result it unlocks. Add what happens if it is late. Present it at planning so the other teams can agree to the dates in the room rather than by email weeks later.

Can I turn this OKR deck into my team's next quarter?

Yes. Describe your team, quarter and objectives in the generator prompt and it drafts a deck in this shape, which you then edit slide by slide. The AI assistant can rewrite a single slide or swap its layout, and the length slider sets how many slides you get, up to 20 on paid plans.
