Adobe

<h2>Challenge</h2>Adobe is a well-known and influential software company offering a wide range of digital tools and services, alongside groundbreaking innovations, to empower everyone, everywhere to imagine, create, and bring any digital experience to life. Ask any creative professional what tools they use, and an Adobe product is almost certainly in their digital “toolbox.”The Digital Imaging (DI) organization, a part of Adobe’s Creative Cloud Product (CPG) organization, which is responsible for some of Adobe’s most iconic products like Photoshop and Lightroom, began using <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/okr-meaning" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">objectives and key results (OKRs)</a> in 2020 through collaborative tools and spreadsheets, and other manual methods. They could see the <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/okrs-in-business" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">value of OKRs</a>, however, managing them with their existing methods was difficult and resulted in a lack of standardization and consistency across the organization when it came to communicating strategy.&nbsp;For Adobe to be successful with OKRs, the leaders knew it was critical to leverage a reliable, single “source of truth” for the organization. They started the search to find a solution that would give them a visual representation of the interconnected outcomes across Adobe and a holistic view of the organization’s performance.<h2>Solution</h2>In late 2021, Quantive Results was approved as Adobe’s enterprise OKR solution. Leaders from Creative Cloud Product and Digital Imaging joined other OKR endorsers within Adobe to participate in an Early Adopter program using Quantive Results as the centralizing platform for strategy management.The Early Adopter program was designed to validate how Quantive Results can help organizations standardize a system of record around <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/business-strategy" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">strategy</a> and outcomes, integrate planning efforts, and help teams align investments with strategic <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/mission-vs-vision" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">vision</a>. By unlocking data-driven decision-making for leaders at all levels of the organization leaders can engage and empower the workforce with confidence, ultimately energizing an outcome-oriented organization.&nbsp;As part of its evolving OKR adoption strategy, CPG and Digital Imaging continued to onboard more teams, and it quickly became necessary to think about scaling their OKR framework. Many CPG OKRs involve product data that helps the teams understand their customers, which led to challenges as more teams across the organization started using Quantive Results.<blockquote>“As we embarked on this journey of OKR adoption within Digital Imaging, we soon realized the complexities when dealing with product-based metrics and key results.”,&nbsp;Jack Sisson, Sr. Director of Engineering for Photoshop and OKRs at Adobe Super Champion, explained. “Working with the Data Science team, we initiated a research project to understand how we can efficiently deliver hundreds of these metrics in a repeatable way, to make sure we have the latest values readily available for making quick product decisions.”</blockquote>The Data Science team identified specific challenges related to the number of OKRs, data and analytics inconsistencies, and the different frequencies of metric updates. It became critical to address these obstacles and build a metric reporting strategy to support the growing OKR framework. In keeping with Adobe’s innovation-focused culture, the Data Science team tackled this challenge head-on. Kunal Khadilkar, Data Scientist at Adobe, was at the forefront of this “OKR Automation framework” initiative.As a new joiner to Adobe’s Digital Imaging organization, Kunal was getting his first introduction to the world of OKRs, <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/what-are-kpis" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">KPIs</a>, and understanding how a product organization like DI manages its broad portfolio of products. Kunal’s main <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/goal-setting" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">goal</a> was to understand what needed to be measured and determine how to measure it. His new employee journey led him first through the on-demand OKR training developed internally and available through Adobe Learning Manager. Equipped with OKR training, Kunal then got started in Quantive Results where he could see a hierarchical view of how each product team contributes to higher-level leadership OKRs. This <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/okrs-for-business-alignment" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">OKR alignment</a> view furthered his understanding of the critical data points and guided him in knowing how they could build a data science framework with OKRs in Quantive Results.<blockquote>“In order to reduce confusion about the numbers and enable the scale at which we operate across different products while reducing the friction of human intervention, it made sense for us to explore an automated way in which key result updates are published. Doing so enables product leaders on-demand access to information so they don’t need to come back to the data science team for the latest numbers.”, Kunal expounded.</blockquote>Scalable, adaptable, and fully automated: Kunal had his marching orders. In the end, Kunal and the data scientist team were able to build a state-of-the-art and scalable OKR Automation framework that brought full transparency to stakeholders with root cause insights on any gaps in data, building trust across DI in the data being shown.<h2>Outcomes</h2>Through the use of Quantive Results, the Digital Imaging organization saw a lot of positive changes, including overall consistency in the OKR framework, OKR reporting, strategy communication, and the rigorous establishment of standards for team performance. These benefits increased exponentially after Kunal and the Data Science team launched their automation solution, developed in collaboration with Quantive.Maria Yap, Vice President of Digital Imaging at Adobe, expounded on their evolution of OKRs and the immense value added for their customers and <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/digital-transformation" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">product innovation</a> once a single source of truth was established:<blockquote>“The Digital Imaging (DI) organization, which is responsible for some of Adobe’s most iconic products like Photoshop and Lightroom, has evolved over the last few years when it comes to adopting OKRs as part of our overall strategy. Many of our OKRs, defined by various teams within the organization, involve product data that helps us better understand our customers. The Automated OKR Reporting framework that our data science team created helps DI OKR owners easily track their team’s progress towards their goals. With a single source of truth, and an enterprise-level view available in Quantive, DI product leaders are empowered to make quick decisions backed by data science. The adoption of OKRs and the automated framework across the organization has helped us meet the needs of our customers and increase the pace of our product innovation.”, Maria shared.</blockquote>Across DI, they now have accurate data-based <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/okr-tracking" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">OKR tracking</a>, including fully automated Key Results and Insightboards with no human intervention required. Ultimately, this means DI has a consistent place to view all OKRs instead of having to ask Product Managers or Data Analysts for progress. Achieving this across eight different products and services is no small accomplishment. Since 2022, DI has over 60 OKRs completely automated in Quantive Results and over 1,000 KRs updates sent to date.The value of Quantive Results and automation is touching all points of Digital Imaging since its successful integration two years ago. At an individual level, employees are guided in learning OKRs, free from the burden of manual updates.&nbsp;Teams have a full line of sight to goals and are clear on expectations, resulting in <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/strategy-execution" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">faster execution</a> and delivery. Executives have instant access to the latest data and metrics on Monday morning, unlocking the ability for senior leaders to better prepare for executive reviews, quarterly summaries, and OKR reviews without depending on the data science teams.Renae Fisher, Senior Manager, OKRs at Adobe Practice Lead, has spearheaded ‘OKRs at Adobe’ and championed a project to build an enterprise solution patterned off the DI automation. This body of work has sparked rich conversations about <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/cross-functional-collaboration" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">communication</a> of strategy, rigor around measurement, and embedding an outcome mindset within Adobe.<blockquote>“Through this process of creating and refining insight delivery to leaders, we're fostering critical conversations about establishing consistent best practices for business performance and strategy execution reporting at scale.”,&nbsp;Renae shared.</blockquote>This goes beyond Digital Imaging, as Renae believes Adobe is laying the foundation for strategy execution excellence through an OKR framework.With the power of automation and Quantive Results on their side, the Digital Imaging organization and Adobe can focus more on changing the world through digital experiences.<hr>Quantive is your bridge between strategy and execution.

Automating Success: How Adobe is revolutionizing Strategy Execution with OKRs and Quantive Results

Deutsche Telekom 

<h2>Challenge</h2>When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, Deutsche Telekom Services Europe (DTSE), the European shared service provider for Deutsche Telekom Group, realized they had to find new ways of working with remote teams and <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/align-hybrid-workforce" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">remote collaboration</a> to adapt to the <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/business-challenges" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">changing work environment</a>. As the company <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/future-of-work" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">planned for the future</a>, they wanted to establish a common mindset to unite their efforts across departments. While DTSE &nbsp;teams were successful at collaborating on a project level, there was still room for improvement in fostering greater <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/cross-functional-collaboration" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">interdepartmental cooperation</a> and ensuring transparency of company priorities. The realization was that they needed a better way to connect the everyday work being done to their strategic goals as a company, providing transparency from top to bottom and bottom up.Thus launched the new way of working initiative. DTSE identified three main outcomes they wanted to achieve before identifying the right solution. First, solve the <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/strategy-execution" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">strategy execution</a> disconnect they needed a better way to breakdown their strategic goals and <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/mission-vs-vision" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">mission</a> into tangible results that their individual employees can act on. Second, change their mindset: they needed to go beyond only top-down goals and unleash the power of teams and employees to <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/goal-setting" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">set their own goals</a> and decide what’s important to them. And third, make both transparent: managers and employees should understand the impact of their work, fostering more discussions around what’s expected and intensifying collaboration between the silos.<h2>Solution</h2>DTSE decided on using <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/okr-meaning" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">objectives and key results (OKRs)</a> as the method to achieve their desired outcomes. The priority was to find an <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/okr-software" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">OKR software</a> that would not constrain them to follow only the platform’s rules but would instead be a vehicle for their OKR methodology. &nbsp;The goal was to first teach the teams the OKR methodology, have them learn how to embed OKRs into their existing ways of working, then be able to provide a configurable tool that could seamlessly support them on their OKR journey.After selecting <a href="https://quantive.com/solutions/results/okr-software" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Quantive Results as the right OKR software</a> solution for their requirements, they started an <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/how-to-run-okr-pilot" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">OKR pilot</a> where volunteers could explore using OKR, offering training, coaching, and access to Quantive Results to begin evaluating tangible successes. The technical implementation of Quantive Results went quite smoothly.&nbsp;<blockquote>“Your support team was extremely supportive, in methodology training and technical questions. Which is something I haven’t seen in other projects.”, Lutz Jansen, the Head of Technology Portfolio and Strategy at DTSE, shared.</blockquote>During the OKR pilot phase, managers and employees alike found the Quantive Results OKR software to be configurable, flexible, and easy to use, with most functionality being only two clicks away. The most benefits for DTSE came from being able to adapt the platform to the unique needs of different teams and not having to force them to only use OKRs one way. They were able to create a baseline of agreed-upon rules, then offer a range of different ways to adapt Quantive Results to each team’s ways of working. Not to mention the power of extensibility and <a href="https://quantive.com/products/results/integrations" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">integrations</a> like Jira and MS teams, and embedded Platform Intelligence that guides users in creating OKRs, even natively in German.The Insightboards were especially valuable for the managers and team leads to implement OKRs into their day-to-day work. The dashboards provide an easy way to flag goals that require attention at the management level, making it possible to react and interact quickly, encouraging more discussions and greater collaboration across different departments.<h2>Outcomes</h2>The leadership at DTSE learned two key takeaways from their OKR pilot program. To achieve success with OKRs, it was important to have management buy-in and involvement at all levels.&nbsp;<blockquote>“The methodology is quite easy, your tool is super supportive in it, but it's really, something of a mindset shift; it's a journey and everybody has to take part.”, Stefan Rose, Senior Project Manager and project lead on the new ways of working initiative at DTSE, shared.&nbsp;</blockquote>Stefan further emphasized the importance of training and empowering key players to create a lighthouse into their <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/business-strategy" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">strategy</a>, setting a good example that motivates their teams to start with OKRs.In light of these lessons learned, DTSE has now begun moving beyond their pilot and <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/how-to-implement-okrs" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">implementing OKRs</a> in more departments. They are expertly navigating their next steps by focusing on building the foundation and key sponsors within their management board first. Utilizing Insightboards, they have drafted a transparent and clear strategic plan that maps their five strategic initiatives to their three supporting targets and further down into quarterly OKRs that are visibility aligned and actionable. With the transparency, knowledge-sharing, and efficiency improvements they have already gained, they are excited to realize even more benefits as additional teams start using Quantive Results.Deutsche Telekom Services Europe’s strategy revolves around digitally transforming its products and processes, forming the core of their approach. In an industry continually experiencing <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/digital-transformation" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">increased automation</a> and emerging of new competitors, they recognize the need for clever solutions, techniques, and digital technologies.&nbsp;“And OKRs are really one of the leverages to get there, to be ahead of the wave; I am convinced of this.”, Lutz stated, and if you establish successful methods, “then it's about scaling. And finding more cases where you can apply it and be able to scale your internal teams and then acquire new business again.”The efforts of DTSE have been further validated by other Telekom entities looking for OKR solutions, who are reaching out to hear about Quantive Results and learn from their experience with OKRs. As an already established market leader, Deutsche Telekom’s ability to leverage OKRs to stay ahead of the curve will be invaluable for supporting their missions of transforming themselves from their position as Leading European Telco into the Leading Digital Telco.<hr>Quantive is your bridge between strategy and execution.

Workiz

<h2>Challenge</h2>Workiz started looking for an OKR platform in 2018 while facing massive growth with revenue and hiring. According to Richard Lingle, Director of Sales, new hires were confined to a quick onboarding experience so teams could prioritize sales quotas. Naturally the sales pipeline was top priority, yet with the quick startup pace, the company had limited bandwidth for <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/strategic-planning-process" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">strategic planning</a>.Sales was working as the engine of the business, bringing in revenue while linking the customer and the brand. In large part, the sales team reaching <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/sales-okrs" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">sales goals</a> creates growth like Workiz experienced — growth unchecked by goal setting was a huge vulnerability.<blockquote>“We were only focusing on the end goal of sales, and never had time to focus on the other KPIs we set for ourselves, such as building training and sales enablement materials,” says Lingle.</blockquote>Lingle realized the Workiz team could achieve greater success in the bigger picture. The Workiz team needed to expand their focus and make time for <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/okrs-vs-kpis" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">additional goals and KPIs</a> to support their high-level objectives — they turned to OKRs to achieve this vision.&nbsp;<h2>Solution</h2>Adi "Didi" Azaria, Workiz CEO, takes a methodical approach to <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/business-adaptability" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">facing new challenges</a> by trying new tools and platforms. Azaria found value in the data-focused foundation of Quantive Results, but also appreciated its user-friendly approach to OKRs. &nbsp;Workiz’s sales team was laser-focused on revenue targets and hitting their quotas. Lingle needed a way to maximize the scope of this strategy, improve sales efficiency, and enable each salesperson to achieve maximum ROI. &nbsp;The key to this would be a solution to solve the limited communication and collaboration they experienced across rapidly growing departments. OKRs through Quantive Results solved for these issues through two capabilities — <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/okrs-in-business" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">transparency and engagement</a>.<h2>Outcomes</h2>By using Quantive Results, Workiz noticed an increase in <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/cross-functional-collaboration" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">cross-functionality</a>. Teams were building a collaborative mentality that spread across the rest of the company. The sales team was able to maximize goal visibility, increasing accountability and alignment throughout the company. With the transparent interest in collective achievement, Workiz reached further growth.<blockquote>“The collaborative nature of <a href="https://quantive.com/products/results" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Quantive Results</a> has enabled sales and operations teams to build a more robust system to train new sales reps. The results speak for themselves — the reps got up-to-speed quickly, started closing sales faster, and doing it more effectively than ever before.”</blockquote>After a year with OKRs, the Workiz team more than doubled in size and every employee was successfully tracking goals. Even during the COVID <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/align-hybrid-workforce" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">remote work shift</a>, Workiz held strong through OKRs. They kept everyone aligned at a distance with a strong foundation to lean on — each team was using Quantive Results in their daily routine.Quantive Results’ <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/blog/quantive-results-check-ins" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Check-ins feature</a> provided transparency on what everyone was working on, helped identify blockers, and addressed problem areas during this time.&nbsp;<blockquote>“The Check-ins feature poses questions in a way that gets even the most cynical sales reps to open up and share their candid thoughts. Check-ins allowed me to address issues as soon as they came up and improved the level of transparency across the team.”</blockquote>With a mission of helping field service businesses — such as locksmiths, carpet cleaners, and appliance repairers — to focus on what matters, Workiz has a partner in Quantive Results. Each department works together to work with purpose and precision.<hr>Quantive is your bridge between strategy and execution.

Unbabel

<h2>Challenge</h2>Unbabel used a quarterly OKR planning process prior to Quantive Results, but the team struggled to keep those goals top of mind throughout the quarter. Unbabel needed a way to incorporate strategic priorities into the day-to-day work. &nbsp;Unbabel was <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/okrs-vs-spreadsheets" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">using spreadsheets to track OKRs</a>, which limited their ability to scale.&nbsp;<blockquote>“We got to a point when a spreadsheet was very far from perfect. We couldn’t continue like that if we wanted to make a real difference." &nbsp;</blockquote>The team found that the biggest challenge of OKR spreadsheets was the lack of structure or routine for updating goals, with key insights getting lost. With only start and end-of-quarter data inputs, Unbabel was missing out on mid-quarter progress updates or being proactive about red flags — having both capabilities would help them not only achieve, but exceed their goals. &nbsp;Unbabel began their hunt for <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/okr-software" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the OKR solution best suited</a> to their needs and best positioned to maximize their process. &nbsp;<h2>Solution</h2>Unbabel is as diverse as their solution, with teams distributed worldwide — this is both a strength and challenge, as <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/align-hybrid-workforce" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">communicating across different time zones</a> can be difficult. Organization-wide alignment was the uncompromisable benefit that made Quantive Results stand out.Quantive Results eliminates communication and alignment barriers — Unbabel found common ground in this mission, as they seek to eliminate linguistic and cultural barriers. This was the start of a new and improved OKR mission for Unbabel.They wanted a <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/okrs-in-business" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">solution for alignment</a>, real progress tracking, and visibility across the company. It had to be user-friendly, engage every employee, and seamlessly integrate with their process top-to-bottom. Quantive Results checked all the boxes.Unbabel’s teams use <a href="https://quantive.com/products/results" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Quantive Results</a> to organize their meeting agendas, track progress, initiate problem-solving discussions, and review cross-functional projects.&nbsp;<blockquote>“Quantive Results has given a boost to our cross-functional projects — teams are more aligned, can clearly see what each one is working on, and how they feel about their progress."</blockquote><h2>Outcomes</h2>Unbabel saw immediate impact on their focus, alignment, and transparency in switching from OKR spreadsheets to OKR software. Leaders at Unbabel noticed incorporating Quantive Results into their day-to-day was a catalyst to spark cultural communication shifts.&nbsp;<blockquote>“Our teams build their weekly activities around key results, and Quantive Results has become a part of their routine.” &nbsp;</blockquote>Check-ins, the process of intentionally setting goals and reflecting on them, fostered this shift. Teams review and discuss weekly progress <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/blog/quantive-results-check-ins" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">through Check-ins</a>, in a space for honest conversations where everyone’s voices are heard. “We’ve become more mindful of the planning process (through Check-ins) and what works best to achieve our goals.”Quantive Results also provides out-of-the-box reporting, giving Unbabel progress and confidence insights at their fingertips. As an AI powered company, they <a href="https://quantive.com/products/results/assess-and-adapt" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">leverage data-heavy reports</a> to drill down to the details of any goal if need be. “We can see progress across the company clearly and look at root causes of issues,” leadership at Unbabel shared. &nbsp;Unbabel quotes Quantive Results as a game changer for putting their OKRs front and center.&nbsp;<blockquote>“OKRs have always been very important to us, thanks to Quantive Results, they truly have become a central part of Unbabel and its day-to-day work." &nbsp;</blockquote>Years later, ditching spreadsheets unlocked the true power of OKRs at Unbabel.<hr>Quantive is your bridge between strategy and execution. Founded on the objectives and key results (OKR) methodology, <a href="https://quantive.com/products" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">our Strategy Execution Platform</a> is where businesses plan successful strategy, focus and align teams to it, and stay on the leading edge of progress.As your company looks to achieve the best possible results, you need a modern approach to <a href="https://quantive.com/products/results" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">run your business</a> and change your business. <a href="https://quantive.com/resources/articles/what-is-the-modern-operating-model" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Modern Operating Model</a> brings strategy, teams, and data together to help make decisions faster, optimize operations, and drive better business outcomes.Whether you’re a large enterprise facing competitive disruption or a small business leading the innovative charge, Quantive helps get you where you want to go.
