Activation (Operating Rhythm)
Turn decisions into a weekly operating rhythm that actually survives the week.
Focused working sessions, selected from your Kickstart. No long embed.
Why Activation?
OKRs aren’t magic dust. After the Kickstart, we decide OKR now or complement first—then install what fits your context. I don’t push a template; I help you run a rhythm that moves the needle.
What you’ll have in 2–4 weeks
One company Objective with 3–5 KRs translated into weekly decisions.
A short, repeatable review cadence (length to fit your context) that ends in clear commitments.
A shared scoreboard and light instrumentation on the flows that matter—progress seen, not argued.
A concise 30-day operating plan with named owners, a stop-list, and a shortlist of candidate moves tied to your KRs.
Hand-off to your internal lead with lightweight playbooks so the rhythm runs without me.
(Where relevant) thin evaluation & guardrails for automation/AI under Tech, Data, or People—kept pragmatic.
How it works (high level)
Select & sequence: pick the minimal set of interventions from your Kickstart.
Install: run fast, facilitation-heavy working sessions; decide > report.
Instrument & visualize (lightweight): stand up the scoreboard; wire key signals.
Run & hand-off: leaders own the cadence; I exit.
Format: remote or on-site (Benelux). Planned sessions only. Fixed scope, fixed fee.

FAQs
Do we have to use OKRs?
No. If OKRs aren’t the right fit yet, we complement first and keep the rhythm light.
How long is the weekly review?
Short and context-fit (often 15–30 minutes). We agree the agenda in Activation.
What tools do we need?
Whatever you already use—plus a simple scoreboard (sheet or BI). We keep instrumentation thin.
Remote or on-site?
Both. Remote is fastest; on-site available in the Benelux.
