“Economy: global competition. These are the voyages of Tom the Team leader. His quarterly mission: to explore inspiring objectives, to seek out new forms of work and new focus, to boldly go where no team has gone before.”

Why an OKR Comic?

Reading comics inspires every generation. They are easy to read. So why not present a subject of professional interest in visual sequences. In comics, specific situations can be depicted very well. Emotions, gestures and facial expressions of the people involved can be realistically re-enacted depending on the situation, giving the reader an impressive picture of the current plot. In combination with text (left brain hemisphere) and expressive pictures (right brain hemisphere), the maximum learning effect is achieved. But the most important reason is that reading a comic is much more fun and entertaining.

Who is this book for?

The OKR comic book is particularly intended for executives who have taken on either disciplinary or professional responsibility for employees and are looking for unconditional focus in an increasingly complex work environment. But also ScrumMasters or Agile Coaches will find valuable tips for a sustainable Agile goal development. Furthermore, team members discover agile approaches to increase personal productivity. Finally, this book provides the Top Management with alternative ideas for the targeted implementation of corporate strategies, taking into account constant environmental changes.

What changes are facing today's managers?

In an increasingly complex working world, managers are confronted with constant changes. Opportunities to get involved with your team are lurking everywhere. In practice, this usually leads to the processing of many parallel topics. The consequences are a loss of focus, a lack of focus on results, long lead times, loss of productivity and frustrated employees. Furthermore, it is not always clear to middle management what concrete contribution the team can make to the implementation of the corporate strategy. On the other hand, top management sometimes lacks an agile approach to transport the corporate strategy across all hierarchical levels down to the employee level.

What added value does the OKR comic book offer executives?

In this OKR comic book, the agile leadership technique Objectives and Key Results is explained clearly and step-by-step. In contrast to strictly cascading goal development systems, the OKR framework focuses on a "loose coupling" of teams and employees to the corporate strategy. Thereby the 3 OKR levels:

Company OKRs
Team OKRs
Individual OKRs

are explained in a generally understandable way and the connections are made clear. The author begins with the introduction of personal OKRs at the employee level , if there is little cooperation between the members of a unit (group). In a second step, the author shows the application of OKRs at team level, where the team members work towards a common goal. Finally, the link to higher-level strategic initiatives is shown.
