Execution Excellence with OKRs
A 90-day blueprint for managers, the missing manual for turning "align the team" into something real, written by Pivotrix founder Sasi Dharan.
90% of OKR implementations fail. Not because the framework is flawed.
Google, Intel, and LinkedIn proved OKRs work. They fail inside most companies because no one tells managers how to do it. You've read the theory, you understand Objectives and Key Results, but Monday morning arrives and you're staring at a blank spreadsheet, wondering how to turn "align the team" into something real. This book is the missing manual: written for middle managers, not executives in corner offices. It's the day-by-day, week-by-week blueprint that OKR consultants charge $75,000 to deliver.
