    • Lack of mission, vision and values: Vital components which determine the overarching objectives you'll base your OKR framework on.
    • Lack of Focus: Best practice is to decide on a smaller set of objectives, each with set of key results, at one time.
    • Lack of Patience and/or Commitment: Be committed and willing to wait up to 3+ months for results to become obvious.
    • Lack of Regular Check-Ins: Without frequent check-ins, it's difficult to keep OKRs on track, aligned and adjusted with the big picture.
