Challenges with scattered priorities, unclear goals, or slow execution? In this episode of Sustainable Success, we dive into Corporate Clarity: Cutting Through Complexity with OKRs—a powerful framework to align teams, focus efforts, and accelerate results. Learn how top-performing organizations use OKRs to simplify strategy, drive accountability, and turn vision into measurable success.

About Guest:  Philipp Schett

Philipp Schett, CEO and founder of Wave Nine, the leading OKR consultancy worldwide that he's grown into a 7-figure business (heading toward 8!). But Phil isn't just one more strategy guy with a fancy framework - he's a ex- Microsoft and Meta executive who's flipped the traditional OKR model upside down! With his distinctive blend of precision engineering and American optimism (yes, a German national establishing a management consulting company in the United States!), Philipp has overseen more than 300 implementations for organizations ranging from mid-sized nonprofits to Fortune 10 giants with more than 150k employees.   While others are focused on tweaking goals and pushing certifications, he's concentrated on what he calls "scaled productivity" - helping organizations reduce millions in unproductive meetings and program management costs. His work has actually helped clients save $200 million worth of time from meetings to real strategic work! Plus, he's got some impressive stories from working across over sixty countries, and when he's not improving how companies execute strategy, he's riding the waves or spinning tracks for fun (now that's balancing work and life!).   As the previous Head of Strategy Sound Design at Meta (formerly Facebook), Philipp brings a fresh perspective on opening up goal setting and creating coherence from CEO to project manager. His straightforward approach confronts the "OKR Bible" that tech companies adheres to and instead emphasizes realistic solutions that work for companies beyond the tech bubble.
