A guiding principle Matt lives by is ‘rapid value delivery’, and together with the team, many of the frameworks and tools used are geared towards this goal. Part of the rapid value delivery philosophy is to leverage what you know already as much as possible.

James Linton, ZEGO. Head of Strategic Operations

“Pragmatic, hands-on, flexible, and business-orientated experts who can apply OKR principles in a practical way to any organization. 

Our company had over 800 OKRs and a range of complex personalities—we needed to embed them to help in a practical way, not to teach us the theory. The approach of building relationships and managing stakeholders carefully paid off through a much stronger alignment across the business.”
