This is the presentation that we gave for CAS 2015 in Madrid.
Partly theory about OKRs and partly an interactive exercise on making actions and scoring your OKR.
4. How?
⋆ Qualitative
⋆ Actionable by the team independently
⋆ Use the language of the team
Leading questions
⋆ What do we want to achieve?
⋆ What do we want to change/improve?
⋆ How can we contribute to company level?
6. How?
⋆ Quantitative
⋆ Observable
⋆ Difficult, not impossible
⋆ Balanced metrics
Leading questions
⋆ Imagine the perfect future
⋆ How can we tell when we reach our objective?
7. Success?
Success is not checking a to do list.
Success is having an impact.
If you complete all tasks and nothing ever gets better,
that's not success.
17. First step: Connecting the dots
- Form teams (3-6 people per team)
- Per team Mix & Match:
- sort Objectives from Key results
- pick one Objective and find matching Key Results
18. Second step: Make progress
Per team
- Choose 1 OKR
- Define ‘Actions’ to obtain success (3-5 per round)
- What can I do to reach my key results?
- Play out your Actions
- Select scoring mechanism
- Score your results
19. Third and final step: Evaluate OKR
Did I reach my OKR, 70% or more ?
⋆ Yes = Yay!
⋆ No = Keep or lose?
