Education 3 Years of OKR Transformation at a Global Education Company
Second division adopted OKRs in one quarter
The VP of Operational Excellence was tasked with leading an OKR rollout. Year 1 was hard — too much hand-holding, not enough ownership. Year 2 was a reboot. By Year 3, it clicked: top-line alignment, real collaboration, and dramatically faster adoption in new divisions.
What changed: Leadership behavior, clear language, and letting teams do their own labor.
Result: Second division adopted OKRs in one quarter. Cross-functional collaboration transformed.
