This comprehensive one-day training, will provide participants with a deep understanding of how to effectively use Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) to improve performance and execute strategy.
Participants will learn how to set meaningful goals, measure progress, and make data-informed decisions to enhance organisational performance, creating the conditions for business agility.

You see, I thought I was the first agilist to make the connection between agile transformation models and organizational ambidexterity.
