Our IT Department elected OKRs as our core project template to simplify our process and encourage user adoption. Our OKR template allows our team members to focus on the overall objective and think about tasks as key results versus "to-dos" and checklists. We've received a lot of positive feedback from our 'Wrike Resistance' personnel in and outside of IT, too.ย

I think the link is broken (by which I mean it only works if you're already enrolled),
It should be this:

Sorry but I did not find this at all helpful. I know you aren't here to tell people how to implement OKRs or KPIs are we tend to call them in Australia... but the lack of examples in the course materials meant that this was difficult to see in practical terms.ย

I found the course educational (my company uses KPIs and stretch goals, instead of OKRs) but it assumes the whole organisation's involvement in Wrike (which would be ideal but sadly not applicable to my Use Case) and....

Like Debbie I found some of the examples were lacking complexity. Also The OKR_Planning_Guide_003 document provided contains an example which doesn't comply to your advice on OKRs in that it isn't SMART.

Thank you for producing this course, the Practical Exercise on producing a visible area to store OKRs was useful!

Have a great day!

This was a nice refresher and a great way to look at tracking in a different way. I like the idea of having the projects on the dashboard as well for quick access to projects one in involved in.ย

a very nice course, but why should I create a custom field for "responsible" instead of using the assignee of the task itself?

I would love deeper dive training content for more advanced Wrike users especially with unique use cases.

Nice intro to OKRs (like Debbie Brownlieย , we also refer to them as KPIs) for beginners. One change I'd suggest is defining the RASCI model before using it for field examples in the section "Set Up an OKR Structure in Wrike" - currently, it might throw users who are unfamiliar with the model.

Thank you @everyone for your suggestions, I've shared your feedback with our Wrike Discover team ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ
ย 
Florian Kislich, to answer your question, while you can use the assignee field instead of creating a custom field we recommend creating a custom field for consistency together with the other RASCI fields and for having a holistic view.
ย 
Another reason is that it will allow you to be a bit more free with what you can add into the field, for example, you can specify the entire unit as responsible. In the end, it really depends on the type of work the task needs and it won't affect the result if the assignee field is be used instead ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ
