Last Friday, we hosted a thought provoking 30-minute live talk with Tony Caink, CTO at Sooner Safer Happier (BVSSH) where he joined Chris Combe, our UK-based Senior Consultant to discuss how organisations can unlock value by visualising the connection between outcomes, work, teams and funds. Tony calls this the "golden thread" of value. A few key takeaways: 🧩 Misaligned organisations lose an average of $109M for every $1B spent – and generate half the return on invested capital 👎 Usually people can see the strategy (in a deck somewhere), but that breaks down when it gets translated to annual/quarterly outcomes (constrained by arbitrary timelines) and into product features/epics (no data and a bunch of assumptions) ↘️ "Cascading strategy" usually means a one way flow of communication, whereas it needs to be a continuous feedback loop 🤔 For teams, can they see how many OKRs they're contributing to? Start with whether people can clearly understand what they're working on and why. 🙏 A big thanks to Tony for sharing his guidance with the community!
