Where strategy happens

Welcome to Progress Factors, where we are dedicated to helping companies adopt a more effective approach to collaboration, target setting and achievement, which is both highly motivational and financially lucrative.

Over the years, we've guided thousands through transformative change, helping diverse teams focus on what truly matters.

We deplore the out-of-date practices like FTE head-count reductions and productivity through pressure.

The allure of short-term stock-market gains can be tempting, but these approaches invariably lead to disengaged workforces, which is the most costly line on anybody’s balance sheet.

Set Better Goals

Companies all over the World waste time and resources, negotiating yearly targets, which often demotivate, are soon out of date, or simply get de-prioritised.

Progress Factors’ clients need not choose between their strategic priorities and their daily business challenges because they adopt a new approach to, target setting.

They deliver exceptional results and drive significant strategic changes in a highly collaborative, productive learning-environment.

Sustainable Impact

We all want to combat climate change and work in a socially responsible team, but if there’s one thing most teams have in abundance these days, it’s top priorities.

With significant operational challenges to address, it’s understandable that making ESG a priority on your website does not automatically lead to making it a reality.

What our clients think

Peter Ulwahn

CEO TUI Musement at TUI

OKRs are ​driving team performance ​based on ambitions and ​the moon-shot initiatives - the ​<outcome> mindset is also now effecting our management performance reviews

In their first OKR cycle,  66% of TUI Musement teams, delivered their “something audacious” target

Simon

We're finding out we have been doing some things for years, which have not been helping. OKR has helped us to free up more time, which has been very valuable

In Simon's first OKR cycle, his team shared best-practices to significantly reduce their worldwide ticket backlog in just 3 months

Internal Consultant at Voith

Crafting ​OKRs helps ​me to be a lot clearer about what I really want to ​achieve - It’s much ​easier to collect lots of ideas than to decide which ones to execute

Svenja & her colleagues set 4 “unachievable” goals & then over-delivered them within just a few weeks.

Alessandro Petazzi

Co-founder & former CEO at Musement,
Board Advisor at TUI Musement

If you can ​speed up decisions or make sure just 10% of the teams are more focussed on doing the right things, then it’s clear ​the ROI is pretty ​immediate - The 3rd ​time is a charm. ​I advise every team to invest in extensive training, in order to benefit swiftly from ​OKR​

After ​two attempts to ​implement​ OKR at TUI Musement, with limited support, Alessandro engaged Progress Factors ​to help them tap ​into OKR’s true potential​

At the ​start we were sceptical, but now we agree OKR makes life much easier​

We like the OKR advocate just like the OKR sceptics once you realise the potential for yourself it will all make sense

Manuel

Internal Consultant at Voith

It felt like ​waking up & ​saying “wow-amazing how much I achieved ​in such a short period of ​time! - The higher ​you set your targets, the closer you come to achieving them​

Manuel ​soon discovered ​that asking ​“how to” achieve “unrealistic” goals, helped him ​find innovative ​solutions​

Gregor

Global CIP Manager at Sartorius
Quote mark icon

    
The difficulty ​is that we have so many other things to do. ​We need OKR* to keep focussed - We always had ​lots of bottom-up ideas. <OKR> helps ​us to identify the ones which will have an impact on the company goals

Gregor ​introduced OKR ​to Sartorius’ production, IT, ​Com Ops & Finance areas during a ​period of rapid growth
