OKRs At The CEnter: How to use goals to drive ongoing change and create the organization you want, BY Natalija Hellesoe & Sonja Mewes

Companies today are using OKRs—Objectives and Key Results—to improve the way they set and work with goals. Along the way, they discover something else: changing the way you work with goals can lead to other changes. Changes in how you plan work, how you lead and reward people, how you make decisions, how you budget, and so much more.

In short, if you really, sincerely start pursuing goal- setting in a new way, you will discover that goals live at the center of everything you do. What’s exciting about this is where it leads: Changing how you work with goals has the potential to drive ongoing change and bring new ways of working to the whole organization.

That’s what this book is about: how goals live at the center of your organizational system and how you can leverage their potential for organizational development by adopting OKRs in an intentional way.

This short, practical book includes case studies, examples, and practical guidance to help you get started on your own OKR journey.
