Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) in WorkBoard provide the purpose and value of 
the work technical teams do every day while Jira helps keep that work organized 
and easy to get done. Now purpose and productivity come together for teams 
working inside Jira while teammates outside Jira can see the development team's 
real impact on company strategic priorities.

This integration and native user experience complement WorkBoard's existing 
Jira integration, which automatically updates results in WorkBoard when work is 
completed in Jira. The new capabilities add a tab to Jira for viewing the 
WorkBoard OKRs page and updating OKRs, including the ability to:

     - Display full OKRs defined in WorkBoard as a tab in the Jira experience 
     - See, navigate and comment on OKRs within Jira 
     - Get a single list of key results across all OKRs and update them without 
       leaving Jira 
     - Automatically update key results data in WorkBoard as work is completed 
       in Jira 
     - View results sourced from multiple Jira instances in WorkBoard or in 
       Jira 
     - Give the broader organization transparency on the business impact and 
       progress of development work

"Technical teams want to know their work really matters to customers and the 
company, and they want to work efficiently. It's hard to see and stay tuned 
into that impact when you're working a task list," said Deidre Paknad, 
WorkBoard CEO and co-founder. "Thousands of engineers use WorkBoard to define 
and align the key results they drive through their work. This deeper 
WorkBoard-Jira integration makes it much easier for teams to keep their big 
picture impact top of mind as they tackle everyday product decisions."

WorkBoard's solution is used by large enterprises and fast-growth companies to 
communicate, align, measure and achieve strategic priorities faster. While it's 
typically used across the entire enterprise, the capabilities development teams 
use most enable them to:
 
     - Set team objectives and key results, including OKRs for products, pods 
       and squads to better match how technology teams really work 
     - Align OKRs and mirror key results across teams to surface dependencies 
       more continuously and see how their work contributes to company growth 
       and customer objectives 
     - Automate tedious operating and product review preparation to give 
       everyone continuous transparency on progress to strategic priorities 
       without the heavy reporting burden 
     - Enable smarter group meetings and huddles with objectives and key 
       results on the agenda and tracking of decisions meeting to meeting
