Move Beyond Writing OKRs—Achieve Real Results
What good is your strategy doing,
living in a slide deck?
Writing OKRs is only the first step. The No-BS approach ensures your team develops the habits and routines needed to deliver real, measurable progress.
Who We Help (and How)
OKR consulting and onboarding engagements are designed for organizations aiming to improve performance on hard to impact outcomes. We work with:
Force Multipliers and Chiefs of Staff
You’re the strategic glue—responsible for cross-functional alignment, surfacing risks, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. But you’re stuck playing “whack-a-mole” with urgent issues, and you need a system that brings clarity and accountability.
Your Solution:
Line of Sight: Get immediate visibility into risks and progress so you can proactively address obstacles before they derail strategy.
Alignment Without Overwhelm: Streamline communication and expectations across teams, reducing confusion and duplicated effort.
Sustainable Systems: Implement a repeatable OKR process that you can own and scale, not just a one-off workshop.
People and Culture Leaders
As an HR, DEI, or learning and development leader, you’re responsible for shaping culture, fostering engagement, and aligning people practices with organizational strategy. You want OKRs to drive more than compliance—you want them to support equity, belonging, and real growth. But you’re wary of frameworks that feel like “extra work” or that don’t address the root causes of performance and culture challenges.
Your Solution:
Culture-First OKRs: Learn how OKRs can reinforce your values, build psychological safety, and empower every employee—not just top performers.
Bridge the Gap: See how OKRs can complement performance management, DEI, and engagement initiatives, creating clarity and autonomy without sacrificing accountability.
Behavior Change, Not Just Metrics: Get practical tools to shift mindsets and habits, so OKRs become a lever for inclusion, innovation, and well-being.
Iterative, Human-Centered Learning: Receive ongoing support as you refine your approach, address friction points, and measure impact beyond financial metrics.
Heads of Strategy and Strategic Leaders
You’re responsible for translating vision into execution. But ambitious plans get lost in the shuffle, and you need a way to ensure strategy drives real, measurable outcomes.
Your Solution:
From Vision to Action: Move your strategy out of decks and docs into an operating rhythm that delivers results.
Data-Driven Progress: Track what matters, learn from what isn’t working, and iterate for continuous improvement.
Culture of Accountability: Foster organization-wide buy-in, so everyone is rowing in the same direction.
CEOs, Founders, and Board Leaders
You want to be an influential changemaker—not just dreaming of a better future, but shaping it. You’re struggling to inspire buy-in, and you need a playbook that brings clarity, tracks progress, and aligns your people.
Your Solution:
Relentless Focus on Execution: Get real-time visibility into what’s working (and what’s not), so you can course-correct early, protect your strategic investments, and ensure your priorities translate into measurable results—not just activity or busywork
Leadership by Example: We help you and your leadership team “walk the talk” of OKRs, modeling best practices from day one.
No-BS, No Fluff: Get practical, evidence-based support that delivers results, not just theory.

Every day, we hear from leaders and their “right hand” staff:
“I need better line of sight into risks that may jeopardize our strategic achievement.
We are always so busy, but are we doing the right things?”
“I want my team to be more accountable, and work with more ownership.”
And your team wants clear expectations and autonomy.
It feels impossible to reconcile.
“We’re playing ‘whack-a-mole’ with performance and culture symptoms, and spending a fortune on consultants.
Isn’t there a way to address the root causes?”
You are not alone. A fresh approach to strategic planning and alignment can help.

Your strategy and big goals are too important to fail,
but trying to inspire people to support your vision is exhausting.
I know you want to be an influential changemaker who not only dreams of a better future, but actively shapes it. To do this, you need a playbook that brings clarity to your vision, tracks your progress, and aligns others to your cause — because true change is never a solo effort.
The problem is, traditional business strategies and goal-setting methodologies are often more about lofty concepts than practical application. They assume a level of privilege and power that not all possess, leaving you feeling stranded in your desire for impactful change.
I believe that every changemaker deserves tools that are theoretically sound and practically effective. That's why I’ve made it my mission to develop an OKR approach that drives human-centered business results. This approach enhances organizational growth, fosters a culture of trust and safety, and nurtures a mindset of continuous learning and balance.
