About the roundtable
Objectives and Key Results - or OKRs, are currently being adapted by most organizations, especially tech companies, but some might fail to realize that just using the framework won't guarantee you success. To set OKRs properly and to use them effectively, it requires a clear understanding of the framework from the leaders to every team member.
What we covered:
- Why tech organizations are adopting OKRs
- What OKRs are, and are not
- How to best use OKRs
