Brought to you by Penguin.INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The revolutionary movement behind the explosive growth of Intel, Google, Amazon and Uber. With a foreword by Larry Page, and contributions from Bono and Bill Gates. Measure What Matters is about using Objectives and Key Results (OKRs), a revolutionary approach to goal-setting, to make tough choices in business. In 1999, legendary venture capitalist John Doerr invested nearly $12 million in a startup that had amazing technology, entrepreneurial energy and sky-high ambitions, but no real business plan. Doerr introduced the founders to OKRs and with them at the foundation of their management, the startup grew from forty employees to more than 70,000 with a market cap exceeding $600 billion. The startup was Google. Since then Doerr has introduced OKRs to more than fifty companies, helping tech giants and charities exceed all expectations. In the OKR model objectives define what we seek to achieve and key results are how those top priority goals will be attained. OKRs focus effort, foster coordination and enhance workplace satisfaction. They surface an organization's most important work as everyone's goals from entry-level to CEO are transparent to the entire institution. In Measure What Matters, Doerr shares a broad range of first-person, behind-the-scenes case studies, with narrators including Bono and Bill Gates, to demonstrate the focus, agility, and explosive growth that OKRs have spurred at so many great organizations. This audiobook will show you how to collect timely, relevant data to track progress - to measure what matters. It will help any organization or team aim high, move fast, and excel. 'I'd recommend John's book for anyone interested in becoming a better manager', Bill Gates John Doerr 2018 (P) Penguin Audio 2018

Our Rhythm OKR software is the ideal solution for companies using OKRs. In Rhythm, you can measure the progress toward Objectives and Key Results every week, keeping them front and center for everyone in the company. You can link company, team, and individual OKRs together to create a visual map of how the work relates, and you can break down silos and manage cross-functional work effortlessly. Best of all, Rhythm situates your OKRs in context by showing how they drive your company's strategy. They aren't just goals for the sake of having goals; you can see how they support your BHAG, your Core Purpose, and Core Values. Using Rhythm as an OKR tool keeps the strategic relevance of your goals front and center.
Described by author John Doerr as 'the simple idea that drives 10x growth', OKRs (Objectives and Key Results) are the core of a management framework used by a number of high profile companies such as Google, LinkedIn, and Twitter. They were devised by leading management thinker Andy Grove, who honed his skills at Intel in the 1950s.
By outlining each objective and its component parts in a succinct, clear manner, and then setting a (ideally numerical) verifiable measure of what success would look like, there can be no doubt about what needs to be done. 041b061a72
