# Technical Oversight Committee - OKRs

Contributors:
- Oleg Nenashev
- Andrea Frittoli

## Reference Material

- [CDF TOC Roadmap](https://github.com/orgs/cdfoundation/projects/2)

## Introduction

The CDF adopts management via OKRs. Some of the CDF key results match with the scope of the TOC. The TOC should define its own OKRs and present them to the GB for approval.

OKRs define the goals and key results to help guide the priorities of the TOC team and measure success at the end of the year.
Some OKRs are more practical, others aspirational, and in any case they do not represent an hard committement toward the GB and/or member companies.

### Process:
- One or two volunteers to propose OKRs
- Presented to TOC for review / approval
- Map back to GB goals
- Presented to the GB for review
- The TOC can facilitate and drive initiatives
