We've found that it's really important for employees to understand EXACTLY how they are contributing to the strategic direction of the company; and for Execs/Managers to understand which directions their staff are working in. At PeopleGoal we've built on this observation by developing a 'company objectives' (read Balanced Scorecard) approach where individuals link their personal objectives (OKRs or SMART goals) to the strategic objectives of the organization (see attached image).

I agree, most organizations do this one way or another, but my guess is that in a large part of them what's missing is the link between the high-level plan and every employee's target, plus even more importantly the communication around that.
