This podcast is with Bella Bardswell and Tim Beattie from Stellafai on how to implement OKRs within your business
Both Tim and Bella left their jobs at IBM and Google respectively to help businesses implement OKRs more effectively within their organisation
What you will learn from this podcast
We talk through the following topics:
- What are OKRs
- Why should organisations embrace them
- What type of company should implement OKRs
- What are the challenges when implementing them
- What benefits do they bring compared to other ways of measuring performance and objectives
Why you should listen to this podcast
OKRs are another form of measuring business performance against objectives but they are a much simpler tool than many companies have used up until now
Even though they are simpler, they are still difficult to implement because many managers and business owners still have a mindset that objectives need to be tied to remuneration and in this respect OKRs are different
OKRs are a way of helping all the members of an organisation understand what the goals are for the business and give them a path to achieving those objectives
Importantly, they are not tied to remuneration
Here at Atom we have tried to implement OKRs ourselves and it was not until we started working with Stellafai that we managed to implement them in a way that stuck and resonated throughout the business as a whole
