OKR Essentials, Part 1: Understand OKRs to Drive Strategic Outcomes

Digital leaders: Do you know the OKR research better than your peers?


In this complementary report, Gartner explains how outcome-driven leaders use OKRs to “connect the right teams, define their commitments, and track progress towards goals over time.”

Learn to use OKRs to grow (not run) your business. “Traditional strategy practices don’t provide the needed structure to clearly cascade enterprise-level objectives to all teams, across multiple functions, that need to align together to deliver the objectives.”

Whether you run a global division or a delivery team, learn to work backwards from a successful year-end, by mapping strategy to execution through OKRs. So double-check your handle of OKRs with Gartner research – supported by 100s of OKR inquiries from your peers every year.
