About this listen
Are you suffering from OKR planning fatigue? Are you feeling like you're always behind?
Before 2019, most teams set OKRs each quarter by default. That's just how it's done. But is that what's best for you?
One of the most practical decisions in any OKR implementation is determining the length of the OKR cycle.
Should it be quarterly, four months or longer?
Ben explains why cycle timing matters and how the right cadence can strengthen focus alignment and execution across your organization.
You learn why most organizations begin with a common cycle length typically quarterly and why very short cycles often fail to provide enough time for meaningful progress.
Ben also explores when a four month cycle can be more effective how cycle timing may vary across different levels of the organization and why strategic OKRs often remain stable throughout the year while operational OKRs evolve more frequently.
Drawing on real world examples including multi tier OKR structures used in large organizations this episode provides practical guidance for choosing a cycle length that balances learning execution and adaptability helping teams build a sustainable rhythm for long term OKR success
