By now the letters O K R are permanently part of the growing product management lexicon, in good part thanks to the work of author Christina Wodtke and her OKR guide and parable, Radical Focus.
After just five years (too soon? not soon enough?), Christina is back with a second edition full of new insights, including what doesn't work when it comes to OKRs.
In this first episode of the 100 PM author series, now available in video format as well, your host Suzanne Abate sits down with Christina on the eve of RF2's release to get granular about whether OKRs will end up on the "trash-heap of management fashion."
