We had a fantastic time attending and sponsoring the Statewide Internet Portal Authority | SIPA User Conference this week, where we connected with Colorado government leaders dedicated to driving innovation and digital transformation. Our Denver Managing Director, Allison Torpey, set the tone by highlighting how Propeller’s partnerships with state, local, and higher education organizations are helping to deliver impactful solutions with limited resources. We also enjoyed hearing from Propeller's Rose Barcklow and Michael A., Chief Strategy Officer from the Colorado Department of Revenue, who led an insightful session on how a human-centered design approach during a UX audit can transform public sector platforms to improve both engagement and accessibility. The event was a great opportunity to see how innovation is making a real difference for all Coloradans. What digital transformation trends are you seeing in the public sector that are having the biggest impact on communities? #colorado #digitaltransformation #publicsectorinnovation

💡 How do you align 1,000 employees under one strategic vision? When a Fortune 500 tech company merged 20 groups with conflicting priorities, they needed a clear path forward. Here's how Propeller helped: 🚧 The Problem A Fortune 500 technology company saw its organization grow to over 1,000 employees, with 20 groups under one CIO. Each group had different priorities and planning processes, leading to confusion and stagnation. The CIO needed to align these groups around shared goals and priorities for smoother collaboration and more efficient execution. ⚡ Propeller Approach We hosted a strategy workshop with key stakeholders, aligning their goals with the company’s core pillars. After identifying 60 initial goals, we trained the CIO’s team on writing effective objectives and key results (OKRs). Through virtual workshops, we refined these goals down to 5 key objectives and 26 measurable results, shifting from activity-based goals to value-driven outcomes. 🎁 Value Delivered Propeller’s work created clear alignment, improving the team’s focus, efficiency, and agility for the upcoming fiscal year. The result? A more unified, outcome-oriented organization ready to achieve better results than ever before. #StrategicPlanning #OKRs #ManagementConsulting #TechIndustry #Efficiency
