OKRs, KPIs, etc are often challenging for orgs, teams, and individuals that are poorly trained. It's the same problem with Scrum: if the people are poorly trained, they will find it challenging, even counter-productive, to use them. Every company I have worked for has not trained their workers for OKRs, KPIs, Scrum, etc. (Well that's not true: Cisco paid for us to have two weeks of Scrum training because our stand-ups were 1.5 hrs long. That's the only reason I know how it's supposed to work) They hire you expecting you know all of that (though never verifying), and then they dump you in the deep end and don't give you the training you need to use it correctly. The end result is nobody uses it right, and the company suffers. And it's complex enough that a pithy clickbait blog post on HN isn't going to teach you how to do it right. Managers, execs: train your staff. You're only hurting yourself and the company by not doing so.
