In this video, I explore the core issues many organizations face with OKRs. The common failure mode is not that OKRs are a bad idea. It is that the organization forgets the principles behind them and turns the process into reporting, cascading, and scorekeeping.
The reset starts with basics: what outcome are we trying to create, what evidence would tell us we are getting there, and what tradeoffs are we willing to make so the goal actually focuses the organization?
Key topics include:

- Common pitfalls and how to avoid them
- Aligning OKRs with real business impact
- Practical steps to reset your OKR approach
