OKR 1 | STUDENT CLUB: 2023-2024 (Value: Family/Friends) | DUE |
Objective | Start a photography club for Mendoza College of Business | Q2 2024 |
Key Result 1 | Foster a culture of photography walks among my class peers | 10/2023 |
Key Result 2 | Get official paperwork done for starting the club | 10/2023 |
Key Result 3 | Engage students from all programs of Mendoza | 01/2024 |
Key Result 4 | Organize a photography workshop | 02/2024 |
Key Result 5 | Make the organization self-sustaining | 04/2024 |
OKR 1 - Outcome Summary: Upon accomplishing this OKR, my hope is to understand how I can build an oragnization from scratch. My celebration would be simple, I will have a small dinner party with my teammates. The obstacle I’ll have to face is making sure students from different programs offered by Mendoza are involved. The biggest fear, if there is one, will have to be the discontinuation of the club & a negative impact on my academic performance. The OKR aligns with my Family/Friends because they are the catalysts, directly or indirectly impacting our personal development. Fostering a culture of having photography walks every couple of weeks will help improve the skill by taking in feedback from peers.
OKR 2 | Confidence and Communication: 2023-2024 (Value: Growth, Knowledge, and Excellence) | DUE |
Objective | Articulate thoughts clearly & build confidence | Q2 2024 |
Key Result 1 | Actively participating in classroom discussions | 09/2023 |
Key Result 2 | Confidently participate in team discussions without any fear of judgment | 10/2023 |
Key Result 3 | Speak randomly with new people by approaching them | 11/2023 |
Key Result 4 | Complete a communication crash course to strengthen the foundation and fill the gaps | 01/2024 |
Key Result 5 | Host an online webinar and address a small group | 02/2024 |
Key Result 6 | Delivering commencement speech in front of friends and faculty | 05/2024 |
OKR 2 - Outcome Summary: I hope that accomplishing this OKR will help me build confidence and strengthen the articulation of my thoughts. I will celebrate this success with a small treat to myself as a symbol of success. The obstacles I’ll have to face are getting out of my introverted shell and not fearing judgment. My biggest fear is going back into my comfort zone when things go wrong or not the way I’ve planned. The OKR aligns with my combined values of Growth, Knowledge, and Excellence because it brings me out of my comfort zone and challenges me with new experiences, ultimately making me a better person than yesterday.
OKR 3 | Internal Peace: 2023-2024 (Value: Realism/Acceptance) | DUE |
Objective | Being able to work at my full potential in stressful scenarios | Q2 2024 |
Key Result 1 | Rebuild the habit of meditating for 5 minutes a day | 10/2023 |
Key Result 2 | Start working in smaller chaotic situations | 12/2023 |
Key Result 3 | Deal with at least one stressful task in the most neutral manner | 02/2024 |
Key Result 4 | Work on a project which is subjected to dynamic changes | 04/2024 |
OKR 3 - Outcome Summary: Accomplishing this OKR will not only help me during crisis situations in my personal life but will also help me succeed in my professional one too. I would like to celebrate this success in the most neutral manner without the emotions taking over me. The obstacle I’ll have to face is getting used to the peaceful mindset. I believe taming the monkey mind is going to be the biggest hurdle. My biggest fear is making a mistake which would throw me under the stress bus rather than looking for a solution. The OKR aligns with my Realism/Acceptance value.
