How do you move from shipping features to delivering real outcomes? In this Easy Agile Podcast episode, COO Mat Lawrence interviews author and consultant Jeff Gothelf about customer-centric OKRs, culture change and the leadership habits that make outcome thinking stick.

What you will learn

  • How to write outcome-based OKRs that focus on behaviour change, not task lists
  • The “Who does what by how much” framing and why it de-risks delivery
  • Practical steps to shift incentives from output to outcome
  • Experiments over big bets: smaller, faster loops to learn and scale what works
  • Fixing the output trap in planning, metrics and roadmaps
  • Tactics leaders can use today: change the questions you ask, rename teams around outcomes, and model transparency
  • Psychological safety and autonomy: weekly 3-bullet updates to reduce fear and increase trust
  • Real examples: nonprofit campaign testing, handling exec pressure for predictability, and aligning KPIs with OKRs
