It is an <em>always-on<\/em> process that cannot be turned off.   <\/p>\n\n<p>rove a moment to <strong>update the strategy<\/strong> <strong>from emergent to distributed<\/strong>. It&#8217;s not true that many companies don&#8217;t have the strategy, it&#8217;s that it has never been codified. And that makes it neither executable nor delegable or measurable.    <\/p>\n\n<p>The second moment in which priorities are decided is <strong>at the end of each execution period<\/strong>. In <a href=\"https:\/\/strtgy.design\/strtgy-notes\/entrare-in-execution-mode\/\">this note<\/a> I tell about the importance of staying in<a href=\"https:\/\/strtgy.design\/strtgy-notes\/entrare-in-execution-mode\/\"> execution mode<\/a> as long as possible and how to build moments of uninterrupted focus for your team. Express summary: You can only stay focused if you know your priorities.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who<\/h3>\n\n<p><strong>In the company, not everyone has the resources to influence strategy, <\/strong>which is why it is the people in the highest positions, usually that narrow rose around the CEO, who have the resources to decide priorities. And without these resources, the <a href=\"https:\/\/strtgy.design\/strtgy-notes\/chi-e-il-responsabile-qui\/\">concept of accountability<\/a> cannot exist either. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>What are these resources?  <\/strong>There are three:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Time.  <\/strong>They can influence how teams use their time<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Budget.<\/strong>  They can influence spending decisions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Talent.<\/strong>  They can influence the evolution of people&#8217;s skills<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p>It all starts with leadership. If the strategy and priorities are not clear at the highest point of the organization, it will not be clear anywhere else. <\/p>\n\n<p>MAKE PROGRESS with OKRs offers a strategy delivery system that is based on two principles:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>People always want to give their best in all conditions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Those who make the decision are more likely to carry it out<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p>This is why we talk about <strong>self-alignment<\/strong>. If the strategy becomes visible and understood then everyone is perfectly capable of executing it. <\/p>\n\n<p>In the<a href=\"https:\/\/strtgy.design\/sp\/mpokr-offer-w34-23\/\">OKR toolkit<\/a> you can use a template called <strong>Project List<\/strong> that allows everyone to self-align and self-plan activities.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">It is the reason why OKRs are scary<\/h3>\n\n<p>A functioning organization needs fewer levels of control.  <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>OKRs bring a small organizational earthquake.<\/strong> Many roles are inserted to control lower levels, and their cost is a representation of <strong>strategic debt<\/strong>, certainly not of organizational maturity. If everyone can finally manage resources independently and for the common good, what is the role of <em>controllers<\/em>? <\/p>\n\n<p>For example, all too frequently, project managers are called upon to be <em>watchdogs<\/em> of projects that are behind schedule as early as the day there is kick-off because they are deprived of resources to influence outcomes.<\/p>\n\n<p>If a project derails, what tools do they have besides pointing fingers at those who are lagging behind? Hire new people? Train them? Modify the project?     <\/p>\n\n<p>At MAKE PROGRESS project managers are critical allies for leadership because they are called upon to <strong>protect time<\/strong>, not consume it.  <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>How do they do it?<\/strong>  They look at the numbers the way sailors look at the stars. And after each <em>check-in<\/em> they reschedule the backlog to make sure teams are focused on priorities. <\/p>\n\n<p>They get what I call &#8220;the liquid backlog&#8221; or the decision to schedule activities frequently not just by deadline, but by impact.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1025\" src=\"https:\/\/strtgy.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/173-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29067\" srcset=\"https:\/\/strtgy.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/173-4.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/strtgy.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/173-4-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/strtgy.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/173-4-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/strtgy.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/173-4-768x769.jpg 768w, https:\/\/strtgy.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/173-4-600x601.jpg 600w, https:\/\/strtgy.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/173-4-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In Brief<\/h2>\n\n<p><strong>Priority vs. Time:<\/strong> The &#8220;I don&#8217;t have time&#8221; excuse reflects more a matter of priority than actual available time.
