GUEST SPEAKER: Lisa Faucher, SVP Business Innovation at Workday

Download the event proceedings for the speakers' slides, OKR best practices, sample role descriptions for business process owners, and a summary of the top 5 takeaways from this leadership meeting:

  1. Smart, fast growth rate is the one thing leaders must drive.
  2. Bigger technology shifts are ahead, so past success is not a predictor of future success.
  3. You can’t grow fast if you align, manage and drive slow.
  4. People’s appetite for alignment and clarity will surprise you.
  5. Fast-growth companies move the needle in a quarter with OKRs.
