First session: #OKRs - Share Your Learnings at #SoCraTesUK. Looking forward to
discuss since I feel this is a often misused tool and it's great to hear about
other experiences with them.

If you are not aware of them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OKR
In my experience the problem is not the definition itself, but finding good
OKRs.

I also see them as a good framework to discuss one's purpose in the organization
and what you are contributing, even if you leave out the measurement part.
Replying to @coderbyheart
But it's important to realize that some (even critical) functions in an
organization cannot be measured.
Replying to @coderbyheart
It seems like we exclusively have issues with measuring results. And the
literature makes this look way too easy. As a profession we could research more
and get a better understanding of if that part of OKRs is more harmful.
