About us

Who we are

Bantero is an OKRs consultancy agency started by Niklas Olsson in 2013 and in its current form since 2020. We work as a network organisation, putting together teams of independent specialists based on the requirements of each assignment.

Niklas is the author of Målstyrning med OKR – the first (and only) book in Swedish about crafting and implementing OKRs in an organisation. The book was written from extensive experience of both implementing OKRs hands-on, experience from helping other organisations adapt OKRs as well as interviews with other managers that shared their OKR journeys.

Why we do this

We truly believe in the power of OKRs. The power to create engagement in large teams, the power to get from strategy to execution and the power of supporting managers in becoming leaders.

All of this is core components of what the OKR framework can offer when executed well. We believe in getting more teams and organisations to implement OKRs and to support them in getting it right for maximum impact.

As individuals, clear goals and expectations together with empowerment facilitate a healthy relationship between manager and employee. As organisations, clear goals help us achieve more, give work meaning and drive us forward.

How could we not do this?

What’s in a name?

We’ve used Bantero as a name for a long time now. According to the dictionary, it means nothing in particular. But to us, it is loaded with a drive to always excel in our deliveries, to work with passion and to have fun along the way.
