Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Are We Chasing The Wrong Numbers? Rethinking How Leaders Measure Success with Radhika Dutt
Q: What is the practical approach to setting puzzles in a sales context?
Define the puzzle by clearly articulating the observation (what happened), the open questions (what you don't know), and the objective (the puzzle's aim). Then test hypotheses, learn from results, and iterate, sharing the narrative behind numbers rather than merely printing dashboards.
Are We Chasing The Wrong Numbers? Rethinking How Leaders Measure Success with Radhika Dutt
Q: What impact have you seen when teams move from OKRs to OLA puzzles?
Teams experience higher motivation, better internal collaboration, and stronger leadership alignment. The energy shifts from external reward to intrinsic problem-solving, resulting in more durable engagement and stronger product outcomes, as illustrated by examples from a Greek company and Adidas.
Are We Chasing The Wrong Numbers? Rethinking How Leaders Measure Success with Radhika Dutt
Q: Can OKRs and puzzles be used in parallel, or should organizations replace OKRs entirely?
They can be used in parallel, with a caveat: leaders may fear losing control if they shift away from familiar OKRs. A phased approach works best—acknowledge the value of puzzles while retaining some OKR structure as a guideline, and gradually build psychological safety so teams feel comfortable sharing good and bad outcomes.
Are We Chasing The Wrong Numbers? Rethinking How Leaders Measure Success with Radhika Dutt
Q: What is the OHLA/OLA framework and how does it differ from traditional goal setting?
OHLA (Observe, Hypothesize, Learn, Adapt) is a puzzle-setting mindset that replaces the traditional goal-centric approach. Instead of chasing fixed targets, leaders define a puzzle with three O's—Observation, Open Questions, and Objective—and then iteratively solve it by testing, learning, and adapting, which fosters deeper understanding, transparency, and continuous improvement.
The Human Edge - Rethinking Critical Thinking in an AI World with Bethan Winn
Q: What impact do you think AI will have on future leadership roles?
Leaders will need to balance outsourcing cognitive tasks to AI with maintaining human judgment, empathy, and trust-building in their teams.
