Reawakening Agile with OKRs with Allan Kelly

To some OKRs are wrong, OKRs are a reinvention of top-down management by objective with added metrics to mislead and distort reality. Such OKRs are little more than a return of return to command and control. Thats what this former OKR cynic thought, but after using OKRs with multiple teams he got a surprise: they work. Used right OKRs fit well with agile.
OKRs offer the tantalising prospect of rewakening agile's radical side, aligning management with teams, improving communication and resolving the tyranny of the backlog.
In this presentation Allan will share some of the topics of his latest book "Succeeding with OKRs in Agile", a journey from cynic to enthusiast OKR adopter.

Allan Kelly guides software professionals to enjoy more fulfilling and satisfying work by improving the way work is organised and requests are made. Happier people and better ways of working make for more effective companies, greater value and competitive advantage.

His wide experience of the challenges faced in software development underpins his advice, coaching, training and writing. Allan’s latest book is “Succeeding with OKRs in Agile”, on Twitter he is @allankellynet
