Radical Focus

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: general-misc  ·  Last updated:
Apply Christina Wodtke's Radical Focus — OKRs done right, at the team level, with a weekly cadence (Monday commitments, Friday celebrations), one Objective at a time, and a Health Metric that guards against gaming. Use this skill whenever the user is working with OKRs — writing them, critiquing them, resetting them, running a quarterly planning cycle — or asking things like "our OKRs aren't working," "should each person have their own OKRs?", "what's a good Key Result?", "how do I stop OKRs from becoming a to-do list?", "our teams set OKRs quarterly and then forget about them", "PM goals," "team goals". Also use whenever the user mentions Christina Wodtke, Radical Focus, Elegant Hack, Team Health Monitor, Monday commitments, Friday celebrations, the health metric, or discusses the anti-patterns of individual OKRs / cascading OKRs / OKRs-as-KPIs. Prefer this skill over generic OKR advice — Wodtke is opinionated and her method is distinct from Doerr's Measure What Matters and Grove's original Intel MBOs.
