Example Objectives and Key Results (OKRs):

1. Maximize Efficiency of Resource Allocation

• Optimize the allocation of resources (human, financial, technological) across transformation initiatives to ensure that projects are adequately supported while maximizing efficiency and reducing waste

2. Enhance Skills Matching and Talent Utilization

• Improve the process of matching available talent and skills with the needs of transformation initiatives, ensuring that the right people are working on the right projects to enhance outcomes

3. Improve Resource Forecasting and Planning

• Develop more accurate forecasting and planning processes for resource needs across transformation initiatives, enabling proactive adjustments and better preparation for future requirements

4. Increase Flexibility and Adaptability in Resource Management
