The OKR Institute\’s collaboration with Telkom Indonesia, a leading telecommunications company, focused on embedding the Objective and Key Results (OKRs) framework sustainably within the organization.

• Comprehensive Training Programs: Implemented extensive training and coaching sessions for teams and leaders to foster a deep understanding of OKRs, ensuring widespread buy-in and commitment.
• Cultural and Process Integration Strategies: Focused on integrating OKR practices into Telkom Indonesia\’s existing workflows and cultural norms, emphasizing continuous learning, feedback, and adjustment to facilitate long-term adoption.
