Continuous improvements to operations at the company, department, and team levels
Greater agility and engagement of employees throughout the organization

Effectively coordinated strategic action across the enterprise for critical focus areas such as: ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) strategy execution; and company performance and portfolio management (mainly for Private Equity and Venture Capital firms).

Our Approach

01 ASSESS

We engage with selected leadership team members to assess each business unit’s strategic priorities and level of maturity around OKRs and strategy execution. While our program follows a prescribed framework, we optimize our approach using the information we gather as input in order to maximize output and minimize time to value.

02 ROADMAP

We work with selected functional and/or divisional leadership team members to develop an OKR roadmap and Guiding Principles for the expansion of OKRs to departments, teams, and individuals, as well as to design a center of excellence around OKRs and agile strategy execution.

03 FACILITATE

We conduct multiple rapid adoption engagements, facilitating the implementation of OKRs with senior leaders at the division and departmental level by conducting two half-day online workshops with the goals of defining and setting each business unit’s annual and first quarterly cycle OKRs. Our collaborative workshops are designed to engage your leadership team and foster ownership, buy-in, and alignment as part of this process, thus setting the stage for an effective cascading of OKRs down to teams and departments.

04 CERTIFY

We conduct six 90-minute certification sessions with champions within each division or functional area during the first quarterly cycle within each business unit. Champions are super users of OKRs, and help to cascade OKRs within organizational units. Master OKR Champions are also certified to train and certify other internal Champions if required.
