There are three different types of Objectives available in the platform.

Personal objective:

Personal objectives inform actions taken at an individual or small-team level. Personal objectives typically have one owner, the individual responsible for finishing the objective.

Departmental objective:

Department objectives are higher level, team-based objectives that a group of team members as a unit work towards.

Best practice is to have a team lead, manager, or director own these objectives.

They are different from personal objectives since they define at a higher level what the team as a whole is striving to achieve, whereas the personal objective outlines the subset of the overall goal one person in particular is working to achieve.

Organizational objective:

Organization objectives relate to the core values and overarching business priorities.
