Can you share some information on what's planned for this feature? Thanks!
Sten Pittet
Hey Gonzalo Monserrat, sure! The high-level plan is to allow people to create a set of "themes" that can be linked to any OKRs in the platform. These themes will effectively be the strategic pillars.
Then, from a reporting perspective:
- Each pillar will have a dedicated page where you can see all linked items and related progress statistics and insights
- There will be a special strategy map that puts the pillars at the top and shows the dependencies connected to each pillar.
What are your thoughts?
Gonzalo Monserrat
Thanks Sten Pittet! So, will these pillars work as guidelines? i.e. for Q3, the board of directors shared 6 guidelines, and we had to create our Plans based on those guidelines. We then had some meeting to ensure each OKR was aligned to at least one of those guidelines.
I'll need to see in the app what you are planning to do, to understand it better. At least a mockup or demo.

Gonzalo Monserrat we generally try to stay away from brainstorming features as tools like spreadsheets, docs, or Miro boards will always do a better job than we can.
The goal with pillars is more to solve a reporting/execution issue:
- We have 3-4 big company priorities that we need all teams to contribute to (a bit like super-objectives), and
- We want to see an instant summary of what each team is doing to support that pillar/super-objective.

Effectively we should be able to help with this 👇

Sten Pittet this is fantastic. I recently brought this need up to Wyl on a call. We look forward to this be rolled out. Any rough idea on timeline?
