Accountability is important in all aspects of an organization — from the board room to the field
it wasn ’ t easy and took the time and the commitment of the entire organization from the topdown . Here ’ s the breakdown :
First , clearly define Key Results OGE ’ s leaders and managers were not accustomed to discussing the organization ’ s Key Results , and they rarely prioritized the most important results they needed to achieve to a few simple , measurable objectives ( again , they had dozens of KPI ’ s that drove their business ). Positively , there was a genuine hunger that was evident among the leaders for more conversation about how their jobs , responsibilities , teams , projects , and priorities could be better aligned with the organization ’ s Key Results .
It ’ s been said that leadership is defined by results . We think a better version reads : Leadership is defining Key Results . Too many leaders in today ’ s organizations fail to clearly define , fully disseminate , and adequately discuss Key Results that will focus their organization on achieving their most strategic and most important goals . Ask yourself this question : Do the people in your organization clearly understand the Key Results your organization must deliver to ensure achievement
