I'm cool with it as well, but I generally don't like copying the parts of the handbook that they wrote specifically for their team and their values. \r\n\r\n@egustafson5 @talsafran @joyjding @sike13 No right or wrong answers for cadence on check in. My vote is for smaller, more nimble check ins amongst each team bi-monthly and then have team leaders summarize and post progress/set backs maybe in a slack channel or something for everyone to see? Fine will all hands as well, imagine that would look like a round table one at a time update type of meeting?\r\n\r\n@terrybetts24 OKRs are meant as a goal setting tool. on one hand it lets people set goals and measure their progress against them, but on the second hand it allows for the organization to have goals that are representative of the sum of its' employees' and teams' goals.\r\n\r\nPerformance measurement at Josephine should always be a much more nuanced conversation since our impacts are more complex than any one metric of output/improvement. \r\n\r\nIt's a good question though, @josephine/team-josephine how do you all think we should approach performance assessment? Clef has dodged the question by saying the company is small enough to handle on a case by case basis and I somewhat tend to agree for Josephine. I think that the purpose of 1:1s and retros and our commitment to honest and emotionally vulnerable communication is so that we can identify issues between our relationships with Josephine as an entity and address them proactively.
