In this powerful episode, Tim Meinhardt interviews John Vollmer, currently the Chairman of Amentum and previously the CEO of Amentum.

Amentum is a $9 billion dollar organization and employs more than 20,000 people in 48 states and 28 foreign countries and territories.

John and Tim discuss the importance of bringing groups together to act as one organization after an acquisition and how he used the OKR methodology to create a successful merge of organizations so the organization could successfully work together as one.

They also discuss how John used OKRs to enable senior leadership, create efficient communication and become more agile as an organization.

John also emphasizes his favorite aspects of OKRs and how OKRs are key to saving time in any size organization. He also discusses the importance of bringing in an outside consultant, like Atruity, to implement OKRs as the OKR framework is simple, but can be challenging to implement and manage on your own.
