Connecting to All Mindsets: Spiral Dynamics HR OKRs that Motivate and Align

How do human resource (HR) professionals develop objectives and key results (OKRs) aligned with Spiral Dynamics to boost employee engagement and business performance? We provide background on the Balanced Scorecard, OKRs, and Spiral Dynamics frameworks. The article gives examples of Spiral Dynamics focused OKRs for 11 key HR areas and matches them to relevant polls that can track progress. It emphasizes the importance of tying HR OKRs to motivations at each Spiral Dynamics stage to create a comprehensive set of objectives that engage employees across the developmental spectrum. This approach to goal setting and measurement allows HR to execute tailored initiatives that align, motivate, and meet the needs of all employees, ultimately driving greater engagement, productivity, and organizational success.


Introduction


HR plays a critical role in executing strategic goals and enabling organizational performance. HR needs to translate high-level plans into specific, measurable objectives and key results to do this effectively. OKRs provide a straightforward technique for defining the outcomes HR must achieve. However, simply setting generic OKRs is not enough. HR objectives need to resonate with employees at all stages of development. This is where incorporating Spiral Dynamics into the design of HR OKRs is invaluable.


Spiral Dynamics recognizes that human motivations and values evolve through levels over time. HR initiatives that only appeal to one or two developmental stages will fail to meet the needs of the entire employee population. By aligning OKRs to the core motivations at each of the eight Spiral Dynamics stages, HR can craft a spectrum of objectives that covers the full range of values in any workforce.


For example, an organization may have the following high-level strategic objective around improving workforce capability:


Strategic Objective:

Develop a highly skilled, motivated, and engaged workforce.


HR could then develop OKRs tailored to each Spiral Dynamics level:

  1. Beige - Provide training on core job skills to reduce skill gaps
  2. Purple - Foster camaraderie through collaborative training workshops
  3. Red - Offer management skills training to provide advancement opportunities
  4. Blue - Standardize training programs across the organization
  5. Orange - Provide sales skills training to increase performance metrics
  6. Green - Make training inclusive and collaborative across all groups
  7. Yellow - Enable self-directed online learning opportunities
  8. Turquoise - Offer mindfulness and ethics training to find greater meaning


This results in objectives and key results aligned with motivations at each stage of development. By layering initiatives tailored to different mindsets, HR builds comprehensive and inclusive goals to drive engagement and capability across the workforce.


The article will demonstrate how this approach of aligning HR OKRs to Spiral Dynamics can be applied across all significant HR domains, supported by relevant metrics. This creates a robust framework for motivating employees at all stages and enabling organizational success.


Balanced Scorecard (BSC)


The Balanced Scorecard is a strategic management system that helps organizations track progress toward goals. It was developed in the early 1990s by Drs. Robert Kaplan and David Norton. 


The Balanced Scorecard looks at an organization's performance across four key perspectives:

  1. - Financial - How do we look to shareholders? This could include metrics like revenue growth, profitability, and return on investment.
  2. - Customer - How do customers see us? This could include metrics like satisfaction, retention, and market share. 
  3. - Internal Business Processes - What processes must we excel at? This could include metrics like production efficiency, innovation, and operational excellence.
  4. - Learning and Growth - How can we continue to improve? This could include metrics like employee training, corporate culture, and information systems.


The Balanced Scorecard helps organizations track both financial and non-financial metrics across these four perspectives. This provides a balanced view of the health and strategy execution of the business.


Some key principles of the Balanced Scorecard:

  • - It translates high-level strategy into specific, measurable goals
  • - It balances short and long-term objectives 
  • - It measures performance across the key perspectives 
  • - It aligns initiatives across departments and functions
  • - It connects the work employees do to the overall vision


The Balanced Scorecard is a holistic framework that helps organizations track progress across all areas that drive performance. It provides a balanced set of metrics so that financial measures are not viewed in isolation to measure success.


Objectives and Key Results (OKR)


OKRs are a goal-setting framework used by many companies. They were pioneered by Intel and then popularized by Google. 


OKRs focus on defining:


Objectives - The qualitative goal you want to accomplish. This should be inspirational, meaningful, and challenging.


Key Results - The quantitative metrics to measure progress towards the objective. These should be specific, measurable, time-bound indicators. 


Some key principles of OKRs:

  • They encourage ambitious goals and stretch thinking. Objectives should push teams out of their comfort zone.
  • They prioritize the most important initiatives. Companies define just 3-5 key objectives per cycle. 
  • They improve alignment. OKRs connect team goals to overall company goals.
  • They increase transparency. OKRs and results are shared openly across the organization.
  • They facilitate continuous improvement. Key results are re-evaluated and updated frequently.


In practice, companies set OKRs on a quarterly or annual basis. Progress is tracked continuously via the key results. OKRs drive focus, engagement, and productivity towards measurable outcomes.


In summary, OKRs are a simple yet powerful framework to set strategic goals, track progress quantitatively, and motivate ongoing improvement. They help align the organization around common objectives and metrics.


BSC and OKRs


The Balanced Scorecard and OKRs are tools used to help organizations define and track strategic goals. While they share some similarities, there are also some key differences:

  • The Balanced Scorecard takes a broader view with goals across four perspectives - financial, customer, internal, and learning/growth. OKRs focus on defining a smaller number of key objectives and measurable results.
  • The Balanced Scorecard methodology provides a framework to translate high-level strategy into goals and metrics. OKRs don't have an underlying methodology; they are just a simple goal-setting technique.
  • The Balanced Scorecard balances short-term and long-term goals. OKRs are often set quarterly or annually, with a shorter-term focus. 
  • The Balanced Scorecard tracks both performance drivers and outcomes. OKRs focus purely on the outcomes, the measurable results.
  • The Balanced Scorecard shows cause and effect linkages between goals in different perspectives. OKRs do not aim to show these connections between objectives.


So, in summary:

  • The Balanced Scorecard provides a robust strategic management system to set, link, and track a diverse set of goals. 
  • OKRs offer a straightforward technique to define and monitor objectives and key results. 
  • Organizations can use both together - setting company-level goals via the Balanced Scorecard methodology and then using OKRs to define departmental objectives aligned to those high-level goals.


Here is an example to show how a Balanced Scorecard learning and growth goal could cascade into specific OKRs forLearning & Growth Perspective


Goal: Develop a highly skilled and motivated workforce


This goal could then cascade into the following OKRs:


Objective: Improve employee engagement scores

Key Results: 

  • Increase employee satisfaction survey engagement score from 60% to 75% by the end of Q3
  • Reduce employee turnover rate from 15% to 10% by end of Q4


Objective: Expand leadership training programs

Key Results:

  • Launch a new emerging leaders program with 30 participants by the end of Q2 
  • Ensure all people managers attend leadership training by the end of Q3


Objective: Strengthen internal communications

Key Results:

  • Increase employee awareness of company values to 90% by the end of Q1
  • Reduce email open rates by 5% through effective use of a new intranet 
  • Double employee town hall participation to 50% by the end of Q2


So, in summary, the high-level Balanced Scorecard goal focused on "workforce development" can be cascaded down into specific OKRs to improve engagement, leadership training, and communication. The OKR key results provide measurable indicators of progress against those objectives.


BSC, OKRs and Spiral Dynamics


Spiral Dynamics is a theory that human development and values have different stages. It categorizes people into eight levels:

  1. Beige - basic survival 
  2. Purple - safety and security
  3. Red - power and achievement
  4. Blue - structure and order
  5. Orange - Independence and success
  6. Green - caring and community
  7. Yellow - flexibility and learning
  8. Turquoise - holistic living and purpose


When creating a Balanced Scorecard and OKRs, considering Spiral Dynamics can help ensure your goals resonate with and motivate employees at different development levels.


For example, when cascading a goal around improving customer satisfaction:

  • Beige motivations mean setting OKRs around basic customer needs to be met.
  • Blue motivations mean setting OKRs around process consistency.
  • Orange motivations mean setting OKRs around customer satisfaction ratings and rewards.


The figure shows a three-dimensional model of the BSC with 4 perspectives on the upper plane. The fourth perspective of Learning and Growth is presented in the form of eight stages of Spiral Dynamics that the company's personnel go through. The second plane depicts the third perspective of the Internal Business Processes that people perform to create value for the Customer. The quality of staff execution of Internal Business Processes affects the first perspective of Financial. The third plane depicts the fourth Learning and Growth perspective in the form of eight stages of Spiral Dynamics that the company's personnel go through. Everything depends on people and on the correct use of the energy of their natural motivation for each of their development in the ever-changing environment of VUСA world.



This allows you to create a spectrum of objectives and key results tailored to motivations across the Spiral Dynamics levels.

In summary, factoring in Spiral Dynamics when developing your Balanced Scorecard and OKRs helps ensure your goals will speak to employees at all stages of development. It results in a more comprehensive and motivational plans tailored to each mindset and value system.

Develop OKRs for HR based on Spiral Dynamics (SD)


So you understand the importance of using Spiral Dynamics to develop OKRs for HR in line with the company's strategy in the form of BSC. To develop your OKRs for HR, you only need to follow two steps:


1) Find out your company's SD profile, which consists of the individual employees' SD profile.

We recommend to use thТариф «Опитування» for this point, all results in one place, export to MS Excel.


2) Select (adapt if necessary) OKRs for HR from the list in the next chapter and set their respective values and times.

Conclusion


Developing HR OKRs aligned to Spiral Dynamics stages ensures objectives that speak to employee motivations across the developmental spectrum. This results in greater employee engagement, as HR initiatives resonate with and meet the needs of diverse mindsets and values. Measuring results and trends in psycho-emotional dynamics via relevant polls provides insight into how well HR initiatives engage different groups. This allows for adjustment as needed to optimize motivation.


The essential advantage of incorporating Spiral Dynamics into HR goal setting and measurement is the ability to create a comprehensive set of objectives tailored to each level of human development. This approach allows HR to execute integrated initiatives that align, motivate, and engage the workforce.


By tapping into the core motivations at each stage, HR can craft messages, incentives, and experiences that speak to employees intrinsically. This builds a sense of meaning and purpose across the organization. With employees united around shared objectives aligned to their values, engagement and performance improve.


Organizations can build a high productivity and achievement culture when all employees feel valued and empowered to contribute at their full potential. By applying Spiral Dynamics to guide HR strategy, goals, and metrics, organizations can execute tailored plans that successfully meet the needs of a multidimensional workforce. This drives higher performance, satisfaction, and organizational success by leveraging the strengths of the entire employee population.
