Consulting and own practice – two years ZielNavigator®

As an IT consulting firm with a strong offering for change management, we repeatedly encounter clients in our consulting projects who want to align their planning processes from the ground up with modern management methods and, along the way, make the factor of goal setting and goal achievement an issue. As a company, we are also repeatedly faced with this task ourselves and established the OKR (Objectives & Key Results) method at noventum a few years ago.

The more complex a company is, the more necessary it is to document the continuous comparison of objectives and key results and to map the evaluation process in a tool.

We have found this tool with the "ZielNavigator®". After two years of active use of the tool, we have included the software in the toolbox of our change consulting and also recommend this smart tool to our customers.

Eva Branse, Deputy Managing Director, noventum consulting: "We were and are very grateful for this extremely lean and efficient tool. No feature is too much here as you experience with comparable software and the methodology is in focus. Therefore, the target navigator fits perfectly to our requirements.

OKR and ZielNavigator® in harmony

"Agile Management with Objectives & Key Results" is one of the prominent consulting topics of our organizational consulting. Many companies want to align their work more closely with strategic corporate goals and have had excellent experience with this management approach. The process-based linking of strategic planning and operational implementation makes it possible to involve employees directly. With a shared understanding of meaning, they can make an optimal contribution to the company’s success," says corporate culture consultant Marc Schwellenbach, explaining noventum’s consulting approach.

What are the benefits of the ZielNavigator®?

The goal navigator documents the interaction of objectives and key results and is continuously provided with data by employees or teams and thus used to monitor progress. The regular evaluation and discussion of work progress is the key to the software’s usefulness. The following features are characteristic for this:

• Logical individual consideration of departments or employees
• Mutual perception and motivation (participative and transparent)
• Intuitive operation without time-consuming introductions
• Working with core data of the company (turnover, profit, forecast)
• Facilitated control through view of progress, blockages and outlooks
• Transparency about connections between strategic fields of action and operative goals and measures
• Usable for working with OKR as well as any other target management methods

What features make ZielNavigator® a smart tool?

• Individual dashboards for each user/department
• Precise mirroring of the company’s own structures, processes and planning periods on the platform
• Automated data transfer via (api) interface possible
• Real-time data
• Own domain, German hosted by ZN
• Fast implementation (30 minutes) and free trial period
• Quick overview of deadline compliance through traffic light system

Conclusion

Companies increasingly use participative management methods to achieve their goals. Objectives & Key Results belong to the current methods and enjoy growing popularity, especially in medium-sized businesses. The ZielNavigator® is a great tool to support the process in a transparent and sustainable way.
