Title: Non-Blocking Continuous Code Reviews, a Case Study

The problem with the current most commonly accepted way of running code reviews using Pull Requests is that they have the nasty habit of blocking the flow of delivery. They introduce a cost of delay. Delays reduce feedback and drive down quality.

The usual way to achieve fast efficient and effective Continuous Code Reviews without disrupting the flow of delivery is through Pair Programming or Team Programming. However, for various valid reasons, these are often a cultural stretch for many teams and organisations.

In 2012, a novice team practising trunk-based development set up a fairly uncommon but efficient alternative to implementing continuous code reviews on mainline without ever blocking the flow of delivery. This team went from a bunch of rag-tags to becoming a reference team in the organisation, with auditors falling on the floor because of the amount of quality the team delivered.

“If you hate OKRs, someone is doing them wrong. Maybe you, maybe your boss.” -Christina Wodtke.

Many organisations struggle with OKRs, often finding them frustrating and ineffective. But the problem isn’t the framework—it’s how it’s implemented. Cascading goals, task-focused execution, and rigid structures create silos and disengagement, stifling the true potential of OKRs.

In this talk, we’ll start by uncovering common dysfunctions that derail OKR initiatives and demystify why they fail to deliver results. Then, we’ll introduce a fresh, proven approach: the OKR Solar System. This dynamic model replaces top-down cascades with cross-team collaboration, enabling strategic alignment that adapts to your organisation’s evolving needs.

You’ll learn how the OKR Solar System fosters aligned autonomy, breaks down silos, and empowers teams to focus on shared outcomes. Real-world case studies will showcase its transformative impact on strategy execution. Whether you’re just starting with OKRs, scaling them, or looking for a reset, this session will inspire you to reimagine what’s possible.

Key Takeaways:

- Why cascading OKRs fails and how to avoid it.
- Introduction to the OKR Solar System with practical examples.
- Models for creating cross-team collaboration and strategic alignment.
- How to prevent or fix common OKR implementation challenges.

Let’s turn frustration into inspiration and make OKRs work for you!
