Case Study: Old Skull Games boosts alignment and execution with Oboard

How OldSkullGames Unlocked Their Full Potential with Oboard

Old Skull Games, a talented computer game studio based in France, faced challenges with shifting priorities, siloed departments, and a lack of long-term strategic alignment. To address these issues and support their ambition to create new intellectual properties, they chose to adopt the OKR framework and partnered with the vendor Oboard, implementing its OKR management platform.

Using Oboard, which integrated seamlessly with their existing JIRA software, Old Skull Games established a new system for setting and tracking goals across 20 dynamic teams. This solution fostered unprecedented transparency, accountability, and cross-functional alignment. The results were highly positive, with a company survey showing that 85% of respondents were positive about the OKR adoption, crediting it with helping them finally complete long-standing initiatives. Oboard was instrumental in helping over half of the studio's members become actively engaged in the goal-setting process.
