Align teams. Master Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) to drive focus, alignment, and transparency across engineering organizations.
Strategy is useless without execution. OKRs (Objectives and Key Results) are the framework used by Google and Intel to align teams. This course teaches you to write high-quality OKRs that are ambitious yet measurable. You will learn to cascade goals from Company to Team level without creating bureaucracy. We cover the cadence of check-ins, grading OKRs, and avoiding common pitfalls like 'output vs outcome' confusion. Essential for leaders driving alignment.
