North Star Objectives
North Star Objectives are a company’s core, overarching goals that guide decision-making and help ensure everyone is aligned towards a common vision. They serve as a beacon that keeps teams focused on what truly matters and helps them prioritize their efforts and resources.
An example of a global company with a North Star Objective is Amazon. Amazon’s North Star Objective is to be the world’s most customer-centric company. This objective guides all of their decision-making and drives their focus on providing the best possible experience for their customers. As a result, Amazon has built a loyal customer base and become a leader in e-commerce and cloud computing.
