@fmddean is there already a draft for this on Google drive (is it this one? https://docs.google.com/document/d/19VrXUjMY68z6ty4vumTMhCnR0R5rcp5gzlLZdCIaFRU/edit)? I'd been keen to take a look and contribute/comment. I'd like to be able to reference it in an upcoming core practice talk.

[joemoore]

Checking in. Need anything?

@joemoore - here is a draft of the OKRs article. What are the next steps? I can ask for peer review.

I will make a preview today

[fmddean]

I've started a new draft copy of the OKR facilitation doc that @darryl-snow posted. It looks like this doc made it to the internal practices site here: https://practices.apps.pcfone.io/methods/objectives-key-results.

Here is my draft that I've started making suggestion to - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JE6co7mdphGvpBzSJJOMkAanWP6HbzRu_7NgDFhKNas/edit?usp=sharing

@darryl-snow - I know you already gave a practice talk, but I would love to pair with you on improving on this facilitation exercise.

Sorry just looking into this again, pairing is tricky given timezones but I think you did a great job already!

@joemoore is this ready to publish? 🤞🏻
