Don, If you could give some advice to those tuning into this AMA on how to initiate an OKR accelerator team like yours to continue to have skin in the game and continue to assist in "selling" OKRs within their company, what sort of advice would you give?

    Similar to one of my previous answers I would highlight the below.  Our Microsoft journey to date has found these themes key to enabling a better employee experience and increased business results leveraging OKRs and Viva Goals.   

     

    Culture

    • Keep employee value at the center
    • Showcase Executive sponsorship
    • OKRs must underpin culture

     

    Deployment

    • Define success and your “why”
    • Choose deployment model and depth in organization
    • Enable in rhythm of business and workflow
    • Check-Ins & Dashboards

     

    Adoption

    • Ensure psychological safety
    • Normalize “intelligent failure”
    • Build “Champ” community and evangelism
    • Celebrate the wins
