In this week’s Product Agility Podcast, we explore the critical link between strategy and OKRs with Sebastien Prioris, a seasoned product leader and founder of Stratify. Seb shares why so many organisations struggle to make OKRs work—and how a clear, actionable strategy can change everything.

Key Takeaways:

• OKRs Alone Aren’t Enough: Why they fail without a strong strategy behind them.
• The Missing Link: How to connect your vision, objectives, and execution seamlessly.
• Empowering Teams: Align OKRs with outcome-driven goals to foster success.
• Strategic Debt: The hidden cost of ignoring foundational strategic work.

Practical Insights:

• Crafting Strategy: Treat strategy as an optimisation problem for better results.
• Breaking Silos: Use strategy to align teams and drive cross-functional collaboration.
• Outcome-Focused Leadership: Embed strategic thinking at every level of your organisation.

Quotable Moments:

• “OKRs aren’t dead, but they’re meaningless without the strategy to back them up.”
• “A great strategy connects vision to execution and empowers teams to thrive.”
