OKR Implementation Tailored to Your Organization
We developed a sustainable OKR implementation approach, after helping hundreds of teams get started with Objectives and Key Results. The implementation is structured in 3 levels, based on 2 OKR cycles to make sure your OKR implementation is successful and sustainable.
LEVEL 1: DEPLOYMENT OF OKRS
LEVEL 2: OKR TRAINING

Pain Points many organizations face when implementing OKRs:

Level 1: Deployment of OKRS
Step 1
We confirm why you are deploying OKRs.
Step 2
We assess your existing strategy and any OKRs if you have already implemented
Step 3
We define your OKR deployment plan based on your Strategies / Goals
Questions (parameters) that need to be answered before deploying OKRs:
- Levels: At what level will we set OKRs?
- Number: How many OKRs will we set?
- Scoring: How will we score OKR?
- Cycle Time: How long is the OKR cycle?
- Tools: Where do we draft, publish, and track OKRs?
- Performance Reviews: How will OKRs relate to performance reviews?
- OKRs vs KPIs: How do we differentiate OKRs from KPIs?
- Alignment: How will we ensure OKRs are aligned?
- Bottoms-Up: How will we ensure most OKRs originate bottom-up?
- Pilot Group: How will we ensure only OKR enthusiasts join this group?
Level 2: OKR Training
The parameters defined in Level 1 form your OKRs training program. We customize your training to define company and team/department OKRs. You may incorporate an OKR Practitioner training that creates a group of internal OKRs experts and coaches. These internal OKR Practitioners ensure your OKRs program is sustainable. We begin training workshops with an overview of OKRs with a focus on your unique set of deployment parameters. Most of the training workshop time is dedicated to interactive exercises to draft your OKRs.
LEVEL 3: OKR CYCLE COACHING
Step 1
Set and Align OKRs
Step 2
Check-In and Track
Step 3
Reflect and Reset
OKR Cycle typically runs 3-4 months but depends on the rhythm of your organization.
OKR Cycle Step 1: Set and Align OKRs
We help you refine, align, and publish your OKRs in a single location, this can be a dedicated software tool or you can use one of our OKR templates.
OKR Cycle Step 2: Check-In and Monitor
We ensure you integrate OKRs into the daily work throughout the OKR cycle and focus on those objectives and execute them. Without a proper OKR implementation, many teams simply go back to their desk and work on their to-do list and do not integrate OKRs into their daily work.
OKR Cycle Step 3: Reflect and Reset
This step features both a reflection on the past as well as a look into the future. As OKR Coaches, we do not hold you accountable for achieving all your key results. However, we do hold you accountable for documenting learnings and applying these learnings to the next OKR cycle. At the end of the OKR cycle, we facilitate a Reflect & Reset session to document these learnings and ensure you apply them for the next cycle.
