Combining the Power of VSM and OKRs to Optimize Flow and Accelerate Speed to Value

Getting to a state of “optimized flow” is a journey that starts with gaining visibility into each value stream’s current state through baseline flow metrics.

Getting to a state of “optimized flow” is a journey that starts with gaining visibility into each value stream’s current state through baseline flow metrics. Once there is visibility, data driven insights are used to stabilize the system before making process changes and automations that address bottlenecks and allow a progression from a stable state to a “managed” state of flow. From here, a focus on continuous improvement ultimately achieves an optimized state of flow. This session will explore how to leverage a Value Stream Management (VSM) platform to rapidly create flow models that generate the key flow metrics and data insights needed to identify opportunity areas and implement flow improvements. We will also discuss the importance of connecting business outcomes with fast flow using OKRs to deliver an outstanding customer experience.
