Larry Page - introduction
À propos de cet audio
In the fall of 1999, John Doerr met with the founders of a start-up whom he'd just given $12.5 million, the biggest investment of his career. Larry Page and Sergey Brin had amazing technology, entrepreneurial energy, and sky-high ambitions, but no real business plan. For Google to change the world (or even to survive), Page and Brin had to learn how to make tough choices on priorities while keeping their team on track. They'd have to know when to pull the plug on losing propositions, to fail fast. And they needed timely, relevant data to track their progress -- to measure what mattered.
Doerr taught them about a proven approach to operating excellence: Objectives and Key Results. He had first discovered OKRs in the 1970s as an engineer at Intel, where the legendary Andy Grove ("the greatest manager of his or any era") drove the best-run company Doerr had ever seen. Later, as a venture capitalist, Doerr shared Grove's brainchild with more than fifty companies. Wherever the process was faithfully practiced, it worked.
In this goal-setting system, objectives define what we seek to achieve; key results are how those top-priority goals will be attained with specific, measurable actions within a set time frame. Everyone's goals, from entry level to CEO, are transparent to the entire organization.
The benefits are profound. OKRs surface an organization's most important work. They focus effort and foster coordination. They keep employees on track. They link objectives across silos to unify and strengthen the entire company. Along the way, OKRs enhance workplace satisfaction and boost retention.
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 book will help a new generation of leaders capture the same magic.
Read by John Doerr, William Davidow, Brett Kopf, Jini Kim, Mike Lee, Atticus Tysen, Patti Stonesifer, Susan Wojcicki, Cristos Goodrow, Julia Collins, Alex Garden, Joseph Suzuki, Andrew Cole, Bono, and others

Bill, an IT manager at Parts Unlimited, has been tasked with taking on a project critical to the future of the business, code named Phoenix Project. But the project is massively over budget and behind schedule. The CEO demands Bill must fix the mess in 90 days, or else Bill’s entire department will be outsourced. With the help of a prospective board member and his mysterious philosophy of the Three Ways, Bill starts to see that IT work has more in common with manufacturing plant work than he ever imagined.

Measurable objective is a game changer for solid progress. Also it is important to be able to validate how can you do things better. The way the book put it is reflecting on the experience what gets us to learn not the experience itself.
However, the book seems repetitive in a way. Many of the experiences shared felt too high level and just repeating over and over the OKR value. Although some experiences that shared had some unique attributes.
If OKR was a brand the book makes you feel like it is advertising for it. Sometimes even in a cheesy way.
The book tried to look outside Intel which is important. I would suggest to expand that part with deeper digging. The individual who shared their experiences felt like hit or miss. I would prefer if they were asked particular questions to navigate their experience better. The same way Andrew Grove recommended in his book to keep the flow of information flowing until getting to the real issue when a manager meet with subordinate. I wish the experiences examples flow was similar instead of leaving it to the person sharing to capture values.
Definitely worth a read. I gave it 4 stars for repetitiveness while the author had access to more materials of a value with the individuals contributing. He just had to figure out a way to extract it.
Good book although material gets repetitve
