Use categories to group related objectives from across the organization in groupings that help you filter and cut immediately to a specific subset relevant to your business needs (ex. Verticals, Strategic Pillars, Product Offerings, etc.) for easy search and reporting capabilities. OKR Categories are created and managed by Administrators in WorkBoard.

Note: We suggest adding Category Groups to distinguish between the different types of categories your organization may use, by year, part of the business, or strategic initiative  and so on.
