If you are interested in OKRs, check out the Dreams with Deadlines podcast from Quantive. I joined the podcast to discuss OKRs, business agility, evidence-based management, and the connection to value creation, including in private equity.
We discuss how OKRs can align the goals of a portfolio company, support cross-functional collaboration, and focus leaders on outcomes. We also talk about why it is dangerous to stay at the surface level of frameworks like OKRs and Scrum. The point is not to chase the latest buzzword. The point is to understand the principles well enough to use them.
What you will learn:
- The connection between business agility and OKRs in private equity
- The role of OKRs in alignment and focus
- The principles shared by OKRs, Scrum, and SAFe
- The danger of chasing the next shiny thing without understanding it
- The role of transparency, collaboration, and psychological safety in making progress
- The opportunities in improving work environments and creating meaningful organizational progress
