OKRs are pretty simple. But they are not easy.

They are a transformational tool that has the power to align and move large organizations in the same direction.

Yet, they are often implemented poorly.

Why do so many OKR initiatives fail?

Are you creating OKRs in a vacuum?

Do you create OKRs all by yourself and hand them down to your team to implement?

You might be missing a big opportunity to lead your team.

Heck, you might be missing the whole point of OKRs - to inspire your teams to think bigger and buy into a better future.

OKRs are a team sport.

Stop playing solo!

Creating great Key Results is hard work.

It is so much easier to jot down some tasks we need to do and call it a day.

Remember, Key Results answer the question, "How do we know if we successfully achieved the Objective? 🤷‍♂️

Try to avoid the "how".
Don't worry yet about how you will achieve results.

Think about the value and impact you want to create in the world.

Focus on how you could measure.

✅ Great Key Results create instant clarity and alignment.
🚫 Poor Key Results feel like additional work.

And nobody has time for additional work.

If you hear, "I don't have time for this, I have a day job!"...

Then you haven't gotten it right yet...

Great Objectives are a work of art.

They inspire teams to action.

They stick in people's minds.

They advance a company's strategy.

The ability to write a great Objective takes time.

And it's a critical skill of transformative leaders.

There is a lot of information online about what OKRs are.

We add to that list daily. 😀

But what is missing is information about what OKRs are NOT.

Spoiler alert...

OKRs are not:

- BAU
- Project Plans
- KPIs

Yes, OKRs help companies to get the right work done.

Oh, and they help companies to dream and execute wildly audacious goals.

And they help leaders to stop micro-managing, and start delegating and empowering.

Oh, right, and they help support team members and their career growth.

Why aren't you using OKRs to grow your company?
