OKR Disaggregation: 3 Steps to Find the Winning Sub-Cohort After a Missed Quarter

The Problem

You're a Product Manager, and the quarterly review is looming. Your team has missed its OKR, and the board update is on Friday. The question on everyone's mind is: what happened? You know that simply reporting the miss won't cut it - you need to provide a plan to get back on track. But where do you start?

What the Research Says

Missed OKRs are a common phenomenon, even in high-performing teams. Research suggests that OKR disaggregation can help identify the root causes of the miss and reveal opportunities for growth. By breaking down the data, you can find the winning sub-cohort that's been hiding in plain sight. Discussions on LinkedIn and Reddit suggest that PMs who master OKR disaggregation are better equipped to drive growth and inform product decisions. However, a common misconception is that OKR disaggregation is a complex, time-consuming process - in reality, it can be done in three simple steps.
