Praise for Objectives and Key Results
"OKRs are not just a Silicon Valley thing. From a mature Fortune 50 icon to a mid–sized, private, high–growth company I′ve seen the transformational power of OKRs first hand. This book is a must–read for any business leader seeking to leverage this thoughtful and forward goal–setting mindset to create a more agile, engaged, and highly–productive team."
Dean Carter, Vice President Shared Services, Patagonia
"OKRs are a magical machine. Insert strategy into one end, and get focused execution out the other. This book contains all you need to create such a machine. Read it, do what it says, and watch the magic happen."
John Herbold, Co–founder, GoNoodle
"This book will help you to implement an agile and transparent system to align and focus your organization. It is easy to understand and the principles are relevant from Silicon Valley straight through to the entrepreneurial culture of Berlin."
Robert Gentz, Co–founder and co–CEO, Zalando SE
"An incredibly thorough yet utterly readable book that makes OKRs make sense. If you need to tie a jetpack to your organization, you want this book."
Christina Wodtke, Adjunct Professor at Stanford Continuing Studies and author of Radical Focus
