9. What if you cannot predict the
future?
• Environment is in flux
• Unvalidated assumptions
• You can’t count on the past
to plan the future
When everything is unpredictable –
are SMART goals really smart?

10. Instead of « goals », consider
« objectives »
• What is a significant change
you want to create?
• How will you know you have
arrived?

12. When you reach
the end date, is
the goal still
relevant?

Key Results
OBJECTIVE

Why?

arrived?
ACTION
What actions do we need
to take to get there?
©2021 Davender Gupta. All rightrs reserved
17. Objectives and Key Results

2.Choose a target date
©2021 Davender Gupta. All rightrs reserved

change you want to see between now
and the target date?
Describe this change in a QUALITATIVE
way
©2021 Davender Gupta. All rightrs reserved
19. How does this change add value?
How does change inspire you?
Find Your Why

21. Question 2
How can you MEASURE that you
have succeeded in making this
change?
• List three to five
quantitative metrics
that are the RESULTS
of your actions (not your actions)
21
©2021 Davender Gupta. All rightrs reserved
22. For each metric, assign a level of difficulty
22
« green »
(achievable with
a normal effort)
« yellow »
(achievable with
a focused effort)
« red »
(very ambitious,
a moonshot)
©2021 Davender Gupta. All rightrs reserved
23. For your metrics that are « green », how
can you plus them
so that they are at least
« yellow »?
23
©2021 Davender Gupta. All rightrs reserved
24. Key Results
No more than one KR should be
« green » ou « red ».
From your list of metrics, choose
Three Key Results
(KR)

25. Express your OKR in the format
For [target date]
I will [Objective]
As measured by
[list of key results]

26. Actions
Now, for each Key Result, list one
Action that you will take in the next
week towards that Key Result
At the end of the week, check your
progress towards your Key Result.
If you are moving the needle,
continue the Action
If you are not moving the needle,
consider changing your Action

27. Sanity Check
• Your Objective triggers a significant and inspiring change
• Your Objective « changes the game »
• Your Objective adds meaningful value
• Your KRs are measurable and describe the change,
not your actions
• Your KR can be measured by an outside observer
• Your OKR is achievable with focused effort
Make sure your OKR is:

28. OKR vs SMART
SMART
Single level
Fixed
Causal
OKR
Several levels
Agile
Effectual
©2021 Davender Gupta. All rightrs reserved
29. Instead of controlling
your future, choose it
The future is unpredictable
The possibilities are infinite
The opportunities are everywhere
Go beyond resilient - be antifragile
Your decision strategy should enable
you to benefit from
uncertainty and unpredictability
