The Difference Between OKRs That Look Good and OKRs That Work
At the beginning of every quarter, the same scene plays out in many companies. A meeting is scheduled. Slides are prepared. Objectives are written in confident language. Key Results are measurable, ambitious, and beautifully formatted. Everyone leaves the room feeling aligned. Three weeks later, no one has opened the document again. The problem isn’t a lack of effort or intelligence. It’s that many OKRs are designed to look right, not to work in real life. When OKRs Are Built

Why Employee Appreciation Is a Business Need, Not a Bonus
