Episode notes
Reframe OKR Resets
- Instead of saying "do a reset" on OKRs, frame it as refining your approach similar to how you reset strategy annually.
- Own progress and connect improvements to the overall strategy reset to get easier buy-in.
Use System of Record Term
- Avoid calling your technology a "tool"; instead present it as a "system of record" and "single source of truth".
- Everyone wants a reliable source for strategy and progress, making it easier to say yes to adoption.
Say Outcomes, Not OKRs
- Replace "do OKRs" with describing the outcome: "align on outcomes and clarify how we will measure success this quarter."
- Clarity on outcomes is universally compelling and easier for people to support.
