We exist to help you achieve your goals, which is why we’re thrilled to announce two major enhancements to your Gtmhub experience.
The Joker achieved only 62.5% Objective progress. He failed to reach his goal because of his commitment issues and a lack of plan.
At 75% progress, Thanos failed to reach his objective. The primary blocker? Even as an all-powerful, all-seeing Villain with the power of the Universe in his hand, Thanos was too short-sighted to follow up his execution of the Snap. He failed to anticipate disruption.
Killmonger achieved only 25% goal progress. He could have benefitted from more satisfied, engaged, and inspired Wakandians supporting his mission and strategy.
Hela achieved 45% progress. However, there were two things that prevented her from reaching her objective: She failed to consider the greatest risk to her achieving her goal. And similar to Hans Gruber, she operated with a waterfall mentality rather than agile (little “a”).
Ultron achieved only 42% Objective progress. He failed to execute his strategy. Let’s review why through an OKRs lens.
Business downfalls are no different than Gideon’s. Sometimes we map out our plans, execute them, and find out that we come up short in the end because of something unexpected.
The Wicked Witch of the West learned that she had serial temporary advantage in her world, much like in ours. Her strategy needed a strategy. To win, she needed to iterate on and diligently execute new approaches more rapidly than her enemy.
What you focus on matters and if something isn’t working, try something different. Plankton, almost aimlessly, pursues an Objective he consistently fails at without stopping to reevaluate his methodology.
Alonzo highlights an important and maybe not-so-obvious OKR lesson here. In the world of OKRs, we focus on outcomes.
When we’ve reflected on our OKRs at the end of our cycle and didn’t achieve them, we should consider we might have chosen the wrong objective or wrong Key Results to begin with. Setting good OKRs is difficult. Bane learned that the hard way.
It’s the beginning of the new quarter. Gtmhub’s product updates will help you get through this point of the OKR lifecycle with gusto.
Cruella had a decent, albeit morally offensive, OKR. What happened? Why couldn’t she achieve her goal?
We’re excited to announce Whiteboards, the solution to ideas lost in transition. Whiteboards are where strategy execution becomes real.
Gruber’s plan seemed like a stroke of genius. Dying at John McClane’s hands (Yippee-ki-yay Mother…[NSFW]) was not a potential outcome Hans accounted for. This objective needed to be a committed effort with an adaptive strategy and flawless execution. 60-70% achievement wouldn’t cut it.
We’ve got your back and are happy to introduce a few new features that will help ease your worries and put what you’ve read in Measure What Matters into practice. Check out the new product updates that happened in February 2021.
Names are the mission statements behind our OKRs.
