ANECDOTE

Complexity Dilutes Impact Focus

  • A company introduced a third layer called "bets" between objectives and initiatives, complicating alignment.
  • This illustrates how extra layers and processes often dilute focus from actual business impact.
INSIGHT

Best Practices Without Purpose

  • Teams often focus on following best practices rather than delivering measurable success.
  • Tools like OKRs become theater if teams can't answer why their work matters to the business.
ADVICE

Proactively Manage Impact Conversations

  • Teams should proactively manage conversations about their business impact rather than wait to be asked.
  • Setting clear impact goals empowers teams and secures leadership support for focused work.
