Wholehearted OKR – Integrating strategy, development, and delivery

Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) are a popular framework for defining and tracking objectives and outcomes. Done well (wholeheartedly), it’s a great model for participatory strategy deployment. Done badly… well, let’s say that you don’t want to do it badly!

OKRs naturally join Lean and Agile. The way you introduce it matters at least as much as the thing itself, placing it very much within the scope of Agendashift, the wholehearted and outcome-oriented engagement model, and an open framework for participatory change. Happily, their respective aims coincide in the importance they attach to outcomes and the integration of strategy, development, and delivery.

With this workshop, we support organizations to address 5 key challenges with OKRs:

1. Define objectives that are relevant, meaningful, compelling, and generative
2. Measure key results with insightful metrics that will guide and stretch appropriately
3. Deliver key results – finding the innovations
4. Manage at multiple levels of detail
5. Support and sustain the process

With Wholehearted: OKR, we aim to deliver a complete realization of Agendashift’s wholehearted mission. We create opportunities for:

• Authentic engagement on issues that matter
• Meaningful participation across strategy, development, and delivery
• Anticipating and meeting needs
• Leadership around outcomes (each inviting the other)

Our mission is to create these opportunities as you practice and learn.
