Achieving effective talent management with integrated objectives and key results
Client Profile
Project Background
The client engaged Everest Consultants to develop a cutting-edge talent management application centred around the Objectives and Key Results (OKR) framework. OKRs are widely used across industries to set, measure, and coordinate organizational, team, and individual objectives and key results. The OKR methodology fosters alignment, transparency, and accountability, helping organizations improve talent management and drive overall performance.
The client also needed a visually dynamic and analytics-driven dashboard to be integrated into their HRMS platform. This would provide robust tools for data analysis, reporting, and user feedback, elevating the platform’s value to users.
While the client had a clear understanding of the desired outcomes for the application, they required guidance on how to design and structure the user interface and workflow to achieve their vision.
