“All of us at Spurs Sports & Entertainment appreciate the value of pulling together as a team around a common goal, and we selected Betterworks to help us bring OKRs into our organization,” said R.C. Buford, CEO of SS&E. “I’m a big believer in the OKR methodology, and I’m excited to have Betterworks to help us focus our team on top priorities and transform our performance management process.”

OKRs are a widely used methodology for defining, aligning and measuring strategic priorities and success metrics on a continuous basis. Betterworks provides the technology framework for OKRs for large enterprises and is the only OKR technology provider endorsed by John Doerr. Doerr is the bestselling author of Measure What Matters: How Google, Bono, and the Gates Foundation Rock the World with OKRs, as well as a lead investor in Betterworks and a member of the company’s board of directors.

“Alignment is critical to the success of any modern enterprise, and we’re thrilled to be working with such a forward-looking and dynamic company as SS&E,” said Doug Dennerline, chief executive officer at Betterworks. “It’s an honor to be their partner not only to power their OKRs, but also to help them develop their people with continuous conversations, feedback and recognition (CFRs).”
