Speaker: Radhika Dutt (Author of Radical Product Thinking)
Title: Radically Rethinking OKRs: Why goals and targets backfire and what actually works
Description:
In this thought-provoking talk, you’ll learn to recognize how goal-setting systems often produce the opposite of what they promise: short-termism, performance theater, and cultures that prioritize looking good over doing good work.
But without targets, will you and your team be as ambitious, driven, or motivated in what you're trying to achieve? Spoiler alert: Yes, yes, and yes!
Radhika Dutt introduces a powerful alternative: shifting from a goal-setting mindset to one of puzzle-setting and puzzle-solving. Through her OHLA framework—Objectives, Hypotheses, Learnings, and Adaptations—you’ll discover how to build a culture of curiosity and experimentation that fuels genuine progress, innovation, and ownership.
