Book Selection: Measure What Matters by Jogn Doerr
Discover the revolutionary approach to goal-setting behind the explosive growth of Intel, Google, Amazon and Uber.
In 1999, legendary venture capitalist John Doerr invested nearly $12 million in a small startup that had amazing technology, entrepreneurial energy and sky-high ambitions, but no real business plan. After implementing Doerr's system of Objectives and Key Results (OKRs), the company grew exponentially. Today, that same startup - Google - has a market cap exceeding $600 billion.
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. They focus effort, foster coordination and enhance workplace satisfaction. For the first time in Measure What Matters, Doerr shares behind-the-scenes case studies to demonstrate the agility and explosive growth that OKRs have spurred at so many leading organizations.
Audience: This event is open to all who have a passion for reading and a curiosity about business, irrespective of background or experience level. Join us to expand your knowledge, engage in lively discussions, and network with like-minded individuals.
Mark your calendars, and we look forward to seeing you there!
