The OKR Blueprint Workshop is a facilitated session to equip leaders, managers, and change agents with insights and acumen to make informed design decisions to tailor their Objectives and Key Results (OKR) system. Participants will apply heuristics and explore a comprehensive collection of design constraints, questions, and trade-off considerations to develop an OKR implementation tailored to their unique ways of working and cultural context. Participants can use the resulting OKR blueprint to explain the current OKR system to stakeholders and avoid wastes and inefficiencies from muddling through or languishing in a suboptimal OKR configuration.

Participants will explore an end-to-end process and holistic set of questions to design and refine their OKR system from inception to continuous improvement.

The OKR Blueprint Workshop leverages 18 years of firsthand experience with OKRs from Intel Corporation and offers pragmatic strategies to align and focus organizational efforts. It stresses the significance of purposeful goal setting, cadence, grading, learning-by-doing, and the delicate balance in metrics to ensure holistic success. The approach is comprehensive, addressing the nuances of OKR adoption at various organizational levels and advocating for a mindful, disciplined execution of OKRs to optimize collective outcomes and drive meaningful progress.
