Objectives And Key Results
Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) are the goal-setting method popularised by Google, and credited with helping deliver "10x results".
They'll help you increase engagement, impact, and revenue, and decrease time-to-market and cost.
Get started, start again, or just audit and improve. I can help you at any level from company-wide to team level.
OKRs are Simpler Than You Think
Objectives and Key Results have four elements:
🗓️ A consistent time constraint (OKR Cycle)
⛰️ What we will achieve (Objectives)
📏 Definitions of success (Key Results)
🤠 The responsible person (Owner)
For Example:
What Matters is How You Use Them
Great OKRs are a good start, but on their own, they aren't going to do anything.
You as the leader need to make sure they are linked to the strategy in a way that inspires, that you come up with credible plans and align with collaborating teams, that you execute consistently while maintaining engagement, that you monitor progress and course-correct, and that you have a high-performing team to help you along the way.
Copying what is written in a book (including mine) is a good start, but you have to adapt all these things to your own culture and context to make them really work for you.
Let me help you.

The best managers at top companies like Google and Amazon are doing something different that enables them to deliver outstanding results more often.

In this eBook, you'll learn about:
- How to set goals using Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) - the method popularised by Google
- How to write a One Page Plan, and align with your team and stakeholders
- How to keep aligned with your strategy, and course-correct where needed
- How to monitor and review your operations regularly with your team to develop them and respond to new problems and opportunities
- How to create accountability and transparency
- How to empower teams, navigate the micro-management continuum, and avoid being a vague vision peddler
- How to run a kick-ass weekly meeting that inspires and focusses your team
I've written this book as an adaptation from the training that I've given to hundreds of executives in high-growth VC backed companies. The methods in it have helped them:Break through a major bottleneck in client onboarding that threatened to bankrupt a SaaS company Create a product innovation that turned a major re-engineering project into a three-week project Meet their financial and management targets two quarters in a row after failing for the past six Transition to a new business model that enabled faster growth, higher margins and much larger scale

Get Results
Each time we work together, you'll get increasing clarity on how to manage and lead effectively, so you can deliver great results without the stress.
Building a Business is Hard.
Great Management Doesn't Need to Be.
You've got business problems to solve:
Products to build, campaigns to run, customers to serve, sales to make.
And you are the expert in your business, your function, your customers, your market, and your technology.
That's what makes you unique. That's where your differentiation, and hence, your value lies.
That's why you're there.
Being a great manager is necessary for you to be successful.
But it's hard to navigate the conflicting advice from consultants, people leaders, advocates, thought leaders, and keep track of the latest managment fads, all while your colleagues are doing the same, but differently. It takes energy away from where add the most value.
Schedule a call with me, and we'll adapt and apply proven methods that work for so many others, customised for your own context.
Finally, you'll be able to deliver amazing results without burning yourself or your team out.
