Most language service providers do not struggle because they lack goals, data, or talented people. They struggle because priorities compete, success is poorly defined, and leadership teams lack a consistent system for turning strategy into execution.

Originating at Intel and later embraced by Google, OKRs <8objextives and Key Results) became one of the world’s most influential goal-setting and execution frameworks. Yet many organizations implement them as a quarterly wish list, a collection of KPIs, or another reporting exercise that teams eventually stop using.

In this practical session, Nicolas Calleri will show LSP leaders how to build an OKR system that works for their organization, whether they are starting from scratch or improving an existing performance management process.

Using examples from interpreting and translation operations, attendees will learn how to define meaningful objectives, create measurable key results, distinguish OKRs from KPIs and initiatives, assign clear ownership, and establish a consistent review rhythm that keeps teams aligned and turns strategic priorities into action.

This session is designed for LSPs at every stage, from companies that have not yet established formal KPIs or goal-setting processes to organizations already using dashboards, metrics, OKRs, or strategic planning frameworks.

Takeaways

Attendees will learn how to:

  • Distinguish between objectives, key results, KPIs, and initiatives.

  • Translate company strategy into clear and measurable priorities.

  • Build a practical OKR system with clear ownership and a consistent review cadence.

  • Apply OKRs to real LSP challenges involving profitability, fulfillment, quality, operational performance, and growth.

Target Audience

LSP owners, CEOs, COOs, senior executives, operations leaders, department heads, and managers responsible for strategy, profitability, performance, growth, or organizational execution.

A certificate of attendance is available on request for those who join the live session.
