Must Read Book: "Measure What Matters"

 Whether you are a college student, graduate student or executive professional Measure What Matters' is a treasure. If you have read this book already, that's super cool. If not grab your copy. This is not a promotional post. Measure What Matters teach you about how to implement OKRs in work settings. I have gone through this word by word and really now I know the first step.

I don't belong to a family of entrepreneurs or management professionals and nobody was there to guide me. These are books, books, and books only those helped me truly in living life. Everyone has a choice so does you. I like reading around and about science, engineering and technology. I do buy a book when its title attracts to my eyes. Any word, any phrase, any mathematical symbol when in a Title get my eyeballs. Then I try my best to read it before anyone else reads.

Measure What Matters is written by John Doerr who worked for Intel with Sir Andy Groove. The book is divided into Two Sections; section 1 talks about OKRs, and Section 2 is about CFRs. You can find this book from shopping websites very easily.

Personally, I love to call this book Andy Groove Theory of Management.

And, I can bet on it, once you read, the learning not apply to work settings but a lot in personal life too. OKRs and CFR are about how you approach to a problem, execute program to solve it and get results. This book will take your understanding about execution to next level. Yes, if you are programmer your approach to execute the program next day will change.

Measure What Matters is a must read book. To know what will you get inside go through those pages and say Thank you to John Doerr. Hack Gaps
