Hey, happy Monday, I have great news for you!

MAKE PROGRESS with OKRs today is the first certified business growth system in Italy.

A recognition that comes after years of work and now finally allows any company to adopt a growth system that is rigorous, reliable and conforms to the highest implementation standards.

A journey that has been taken together with the brilliant leaders who first adopted the tools of MAKE PROGRESS and helped, by testing them daily in the field, to shape the current form that is available today in the certified book and implementation program.

This certification, from an external, impartial body, is not only a stamp of approval for us, but also represents a tangible commitment to the quality and effectiveness that STRTGY offers you and your company.

I believe that in the future, Strategy will be every organization’s only competitive advantage. As new technologies continue to amplify productivity, it will become increasingly important to acquire the skills of strategic ideation, measurement, and execution.

For the leaders of the future, it will no longer be enough to do, do, do…
but to think, coordinate and invent.

We have before us a great opportunity to seize: that of giving strategy back to the people.

For this we need new tools, simpler, faster, more effective, designed for a new way of working.

In this note I have compiled a list of 10 reasons why certification is an important milestone, not only for us but also for you who are part of this community.

We’re redefining standards together,
and it’s really worth saying…
ALWAYS MAKE PROGRESS ⤴

Top 10 benefits of adopting OKRs with the only certified growth system available today

Implementing OKRs in your company means deciding, for the sake of your company, to work in a radically different way.

Faster.

More effective.

More motivating.

More ambitious.

More practical.

More transparent.

More honest.

More innovative.

More strategic.

It also means facing great challenges that we at STRTGY are very familiar with:

  • Complexity in implementation. Many companies are concerned that OKR adoption is a complex process that requires too much time and resources.
  • Strategic alignment. Companies often worry about how to align OKRs with existing business objectives.
  • Adoption in the long run. Concern that team members may resist change.
  • ROI Uncertain. Uncertainty about the return on investment makes it difficult to justify the transition to a new goal management system.
  • Hidden Costs. Concern that there may be hidden or unanticipated costs associated with implementing OKR.
  • Integration with Existing Systems. Anxiety that OKR’s new system will require imposing technical efforts to measure data.
  • Training and Support. The fear that the required training is insufficient or that post-implementation support may be lacking.
  • Scalability. Concerns that the system may not be able to accommodate the company’s future growth.
  • Cultural Change. Fear that adoption of OKR may lead to an unwanted cultural change within the company.

We have engineered MAKE PROGRESS with OKRs to provide you, by-design, with the most effective tools to meet these challenges with the confidence of a certified method.

Quality Assurance

Certification ensures that each implementation program is delivered with the highest quality standards.

Reliability

The system has been rigorously tested, reducing the risks associated in adopting new strategy and team management techniques.

Transparency

Certification provides a level of transparency about the functionality and benefits of the system, making it easier for customers to make informed decisions.

Make Progress with OKRs is the most publicly available publicly documented goal-driven methodology implementation program available today by de-facto redefining the standard of implementation.

Competitive advantage

With the certified solution, customers gain a competitive edge by having a system that has already been validated.

Efficiency

The certified system is able to integrate smoothly with other business management practices, speeding up implementation time.

Cost reduction

Implementation according to certified standards minimizes risks and errors, thus reducing hidden or unanticipated costs in the long run.

Expertise, Support and Maintenance

Certification demonstrates the competence of the implementation team and ensures that clients receive the highest possible value. The certified system includes a higher level of service and support, translating into a more secure investment.

In addition, STRTGY supports regular audits that ensure standards are maintained.

Scalability

MAKE PROGRESS with OKRs is designed to grow with the company. Employees access certification programs for acquired skills to independently support the adoption of strategic processes as the methodology spreads throughout the company.

Innovation

Adopting a certified system is a step toward innovation because it allows you to stay at the forefront of your industry. MAKE PROGRESS with OKRs is enriched and evolves each time it comes into contact with implementation challenges in different industries.

Reputation

Using a certified system elevates brand perception, showing commitment to excellence and quality, values that we share with all the teams with whom we collaborate.
