Put theory into practice

OKRs have the power to drive sharp focus, fast growth, and high alignment for organizations of any scale. But all OKRs aren’t created equal. The popular books Measure What Matters and Radical Focus articulate why OKRs are so powerful, but fail to offer clarity on how to successfully implement them.

The Practical Guide to Enterprise OKRs uncovers:

  • Why getting the leadership team aligned is critical to running a successful OKR program
  • How to drive OKRs across the teams that hold 99% of the company's execution capacity
  • How to set the right KR achievement threshold for your organization
  • When it's the right time to partner with experienced OKR coaches

What are the business benefits of OKRs?

Strategic Clarity

OKRs provide transparency and clear visibility into each team’s strategic objectives, so everyone knows the strategy and how their work contributes to achieving it.

Vertical & Lateral Alignment

Teams localize OKRs into their nouns, verbs and numbers and enrich them with the team’s expertise and insight.

Aspirational Outcomes

Teams can set big, bold Objectives and use Key Results as clear measurements of success.

Accountability

OKRs are designed to be fully transparent across an entire organization, ensuring that every team member is contributing to achieving the goal.

Resource Allocation

Greater visibility eliminates redundancies and focuses human capital on executing the strategy.

Systematic Learnings

Organically capture ongoing learnings and document how team members navigate and overcome roadblocks. OKRs help create an environment of systematic learning that permeates an entire organization.

This best practices guide shows how enterprises can move their entire organization to OKRs programmatically, quickly and successfully. Download this practical guide and discover how to execute strategy with OKRs.
