  • 164 | Becoming More Strategic as an HR Team: 3 Ways OKRs Can Help
    2026/02/13

    What does it really mean for an HR team to be “strategic” – and how can you make that shift without adding more to your workload?

    In this solo episode of HR Coffee Time, Fay explores a practical and accessible way to strengthen your team’s strategic focus: using OKRs – Objectives and Key Results.

    If you’ve ever felt pulled between operational demands and the bigger picture, this episode will help you think differently about how HR goals connect to organisational priorities – and how to make that link clearer for your whole team.

    Drawing on real examples (including a memorable orange analogy 🍊), Fay breaks down how OKRs can:

    1. Create clarity and accountability
    2. Connect HR activity to business impact
    3. Help team members see how their work contributes to the wider strategy

    You’ll come away with three practical ways to use OKRs to strengthen your strategic focus as a team – without overcomplicating things.
