You’re Using OKRs All Wrong — Here’s How to Get Your Team to Reach Their Goals

Send a textMost OKR frameworks focus on what you want to accomplish, but not how. They’re great for setting strategy and direction, but they don’t help you identify the tactical tasks that will get those things done. The real stumbling block ain’t the strategies or the OKRs, it’s how they align with daily tasks. That’s where most OKR frameworks fall short.In this episode, I share how you can make OKRs work better for you and your team. To come up with a framework that works in real life, we borrowed some elements of Andy Grove’s OKR model and Richard Rumelt’s kernel of good strategy and then connected them to the projects and daily work.I work you through the key sections including a shared diagnosis, a clear strategy, measurable objectives, and a practical roadmap. This simple structure then syncs daily activities with overarching goals and helps your team connect the big-picture strategy with the daily grind.You can get our Notion OKR Template here: https://stunandawe.gumroad.com/l/strategy-okr-notion-template Here's what I cover:The Problem with Traditional OKRsBuilding a Better OKR Framework with NotionDiagnosing Your Current RealityDesigning Your StrategySetting Objectives and Key ResultsCreating a Roadmap and InitiativesImplementing with Sprints and TasksWhere to find Michel:Newsletter: https://www.stunandawe.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/micheljgagnon/X: https://twitter.com/michelgagnonSupport the show Do you have a question you'd like me to answer on the podcast or feedback to share?
