OKR template to enhance leadership abilities for a novice team lead
The main aim of this OKR titled 'Enhance leadership abilities for a novice team lead' is upgrading the leadership abilities of a beginner team leader. This is tracked by three significant outcomes. The first outcome is the completion of two successful projects within the next quarter, starting from scratch to definitive execution.
The initial objectives for this outcome involve identifying two potential leadership projects, defining comprehensive action plans with strict deadlines, and effectively managing and tracking the progress for both projects. These steps represent the entire process of a project from its inception to its execution.
The second outcome involves achieving a feedback score of four (on a scale of zero to hundred) regarding leadership effectiveness from team members. To achieve this, the team lead needs to enhance communication and decision-making skills, implement a leadership training program effectively and regularly, and apply feedback received from team members. These initiatives focus on receiving inputs about the team lead's effectiveness from team members.
Finally, the third outcome requires the completion of a certified leadership training course. The initiatives mapped to reach this outcome include researching and selecting a suitable leadership training program, enrolling, and ultimately earning the certification. This step highlights the importance of formal education in enhancing leadership abilities.
