Strategic Counsel: The Power of the OKR Framework (Objectives & Key Results) with Philipp Schett, Wave Nine
We’re always talking about how to create strategic plans and then execute them with intention for immediate action and measurement. As we like to do on this show, we bring forth many different approaches and ways of thinking, because we know not every tool is a one-size-fits-all. Today, that focus is on the OKR framework aka Objectives & Key Results. We wanted you to learn from an expert who knows OKRs better than anyone, so we welcomed on Philipp Schett. He’s the Founder of Wave Nine, the #1 OKR consulting firm. You’ll also love their free OKR Crash Course. Here’s a small sample of what you will hear in this episode:
- What are OKRs?
- How do OKRs compare to KPIs?
- What are some case studies about OKRs?
- Who’s in the room in an OKR workshop?
- German Beer vs. American Beer
