> In theory the idea of OKRs is fine. They are "supposed" to give individuals a form of autonomous growth which can be related to the company and has a way to be measured and traced back. It gives them the "personal responsibility", "growth" and "autonomy" which tickles a particular type of people.
I still don’t even understand how that’s supposed to work unless you’re an executive with wide latitude to do what you think is best. I worked on what my manager told me to work on. All I can control is the quality of my own work. Maybe it wasn’t meant for the rank and file.
