With an objectiveproduct goals, you formulate your business goals with success factors, strategic suitability and the risks that are addressed in the processkey results. enbl.it adapts the Objective and Key Results (OKR) framework , but simplifies the handling significantly. Instead of key results, enbl.it uses You cam match product goals with initiatives, which act as a link between the company's and the target group's point of view. |
The
You can enter an Objective Lead and the time period for which the Objective should be valid. The priority value will be automatically filled in later.
Do you have any other documents that are important for the Objective? Then link them.
The next thing you can fill in is the Objective's goal. Describe in a few sentences what the goal of this objective is.
Now it's the turn of strategic fit. Here you describe the influence this objective has on the company-wide strategy. Try to formulate it in a few sentences as well.
With the success factors you measure after completion of the objective whether this project was successful or not. Enter one success factor per line. You can subdivide each success factor into smaller partial goals.
An objective can both create and mitigate risks. It is important to know the risks. Enter the risks in this table and evaluate them. The evaluation can be done with the status macro, which you activate with the input /status.
Sometimes it happens that other services are needed to achieve the goal of the Objective or there are other dependencies.
Enter this in the table. You can indicate the type again with the status macro (enter /status).
If you have defined many objectives, it is helpful to prioritize them, because you cannot work on everything at once. For this purpose there is the prioritization macro that is documented separately. You can edit the values by clicking on the macro and then on the icon with the pencil. On the right side a panel opens with the possible settings. The priority value is automatically calculated and filled at the top of the page.
This is where the initiatives are blended in. The initiatives have their own template and are created as subpages to the associated objective.

Unfortunately, Confluence has an unrecoverable misbehavior here. In order for the button for creating an initiative to be displayed, you have to click on the error message and then on the icon with the pencil. You can close the dialog again without making any changes. This is enough for the macro to be updated with the current name of the space. You can then also delete the help text directly. You have to do this only once directly after using the template. |
overview page for product goals is generated as soon as enbl.it is activated in a Confluence space. On this overview page, you can find all defined product goals (1) and have the option to create new product goals (2).
Adding a new Product Goal
You begin by defining a product goal with a summary (1), followed by an optional explanation of the current situation and background knowledge (2). This initial overview sets the foundation for understanding the goal's purpose and context.
In the next section, you'll document key metadata, including contact persons and links to additional documents (3). As your project evolves, this section becomes a central hub where you can link all initiatives that contribute to achieving this product goal, creating a clear chain of accountability and progress.
To ensure your product goal can be effectively evaluated, you'll add the necessary key results (4). Each key result is structured with a concise title and precise description, made concrete and measurable through specific sub-goals. This measurement framework enables you to track progress and demonstrate success systematically.
The template concludes with a simple question and answer block (5). If any content-related questions arise during filling, you have a central place here where you can deposit them. This way, others who have similar questions can share them.
Example of a Product Goal
To make the use of product goals more tangible for you, we have added an example here. This will give you a practical reference point and help you understand how to effectively create and utilize your own product goals.
