Unlocking How KPIs and OKRs Are Hurting Your Company With Radhika Dutt

Unlocking How KPIs and OKRs Are Hurting Your Company With Radhika Dutt

What if your OKRs are actually holding you back? Radhika Dutt flips goal-setting on its head, showing why most leaders chase numbers instead of progress. She unpacks performance illusion when teams look successful but quietly stall and how a puzzle-based approach creates real ownership and innovation.

We dive into her Dutt's Law ("metrics are for insight, not evaluation"), why curiosity beats control, and how to run teams that tell the truth instead of gaming the numbers. This episode isn't anti-goals – it's about building smarter ones that actually grow your people and your business.
