WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
Core course allowed me to learn and experience at the same time. I’ve learnt the background and the theory of OKRs in the core course. The class was quite active in learning because the speaker allowed and motivated us to discuss until we had a clear understanding.
We had the opportunity to collaborate and share our experiences with each other and helped us have a clear understanding about the definition of OKRs, how it’s different from KPIs and other management concepts. We have also experienced, in the role play workshop, how to set the objectives and key results. I think that the instructional design is appropriate.
After-course: Was good to revise and motivate myself to take actions and implement."
