Measure What Matters

In “Measure What Matters,” legendary venture capitalist John Doerr unveils the secret to success: setting and achieving audacious goals. Drawing from his experiences with tech giants like Google and Intel, Doerr introduces OKRs (Objectives and Key Results), a revolutionary goal-setting system. I found his anecdotes captivating, especially the behind-the-scenes look at how OKRs transformed companies. Doerr’s passion for this method is contagious, and I caught myself scribbling notes in the margins. A must-read for anyone looking to supercharge their personal or professional growth.

The Lean Startup

Eric Ries’s “The Lean Startup” is a game-changer for entrepreneurs. I devoured it in a weekend, scribbling notes in the margins. Ries’s approach feels revolutionary yet intuitive, challenging traditional business wisdom. His method of rapid experimentation and customer feedback resonated with my own startup struggles. It’s not just theory; Ries peppers the book with real-world examples that had me nodding along. A must-read for anyone with a business idea burning in their gut.
