OKR. Yes technically not a single word. To explain, when you inherit 10-15 OKRs that can’t all be correlated with your job in Workday automatically from division-level, what is the point of personal OKRs?

+1 on “agile” as the corporate costume. Mine might be “culture fit”—which often seems like shorthand for “feels familiar.” Wondering if you’ve seen any teams try to actually measure or define it meaningfully?

I get it, “agile” has become a checkbox for many. I care less about buzzwords and more about how candidates actually work, how they plan, communicate, and adapt when things change. That’s what really shows if they can deliver.
