From "Introduction to OKRs",
[1]www.oreilly.com/business/free/files/introduction-to-okrs.pdf:
OKR is an acronym, and like most acronyms, the words behind the
letters are often forgotten. This is a deadly mistake.
How Objectives and Key Results are life-and-death is not covered on
that page or the entire document.
O'Reilly editors, please note:
* Acronyms as titles, even in short works, rarely drive readership
* Overuse of the acronym in the text dilutes its meaning
* Watch the dead space - nothing starts until page 6, four pages are
blank, and another page has a two line sentence
* Getting Started with OKRs is the title of the last chapter?
This is a PDF, not a print pamphlet. Treat it as such.As it is, Christina Wodtke
a> provides some useful bits if you dig through the dry text. These aren't new.
You've seen their like before and will again. Christina needed a narrative (she
hinted at stories from her storied career) and a real editor to make this pop.
This piece is a free PDF. Maybe this is new to you. If so, dive in! If
not, the only cost is that you could be reading something else. Taking
a few minutes to review or reacquaint yourself is valuable, too.
