How to deploy OKRs and Viva Goals: Lessons from Microsoft's deployment to 200K+ employees

Absolutely. We all must understand and realize benefits of BOTH the employee experience and business results which OKRs leveraging Viva Goals can bring to life. It’s human nature for us to want to know, “What’s in it for me?” when being introduced to a new process. To help communicate the benefits of OKRs to your leaders, teams, or colleagues, we’ve broken it down into the outcomes they’ll see individually if the organization adopts OKRs. We’ve also incorporated findings from our 2021 Goal Management Report to give hard data to fuel the fire. When asked to rank the top three benefits of their goal management process, executives, managers, and individual contributors all answered with similar shared values: higher performing teams, faster growth, increased revenue, and less wasted time.
