Radical Focus (Second Edition): Achieving Your Most Important Goals with Objectives and Key Results

Since last few months I have been working like a mad dog and scratch the internet surface for more understanding and matured information on the implementation of OKRs so that I could guide and encourage my team to explore this for their increased growth, satisfaction and better engagement. During this phase I came across this book name and thought of giving it try. Found it to be the best most among all the books available in the market as this has got a deep guidence, advise and what not to do, how not to fail which is very important to understand. A reading and learning is worth.

After reading “measure what matters”, I was looking for the next step in my understanding of the OKR concept. This book was easy to read, packed with relevant examples and the story it uses to teach concepts is relatable. Especially appreciated the chapters on setting goals and scoring OKRs. Great read.

I have read about OKRs a while back but this books has set me onto the path of OKR execution.

Breeze to read yet communicating some powerful tools. Took just one afternoon to read. Could have been shorter (some repetations).

Super easy read, with full of actionable suggestions. Very inspirational. A must read if you are considering OKRs for your organisation.

The fictional story approach at explaining the OKRs is very interesting and keeps you going through the book. Really nice!

If anyone wants to quickly understand and deploy okrs in their company, this is the book . It’s an easy read .

I had watched a few videos about OKRs and wanted to go a bit deeper, hence bought this book. The book did give me a birds eye view but was not comprehensive enough for me to share the idea with a team to get OKRs started. The story in the first half of the book is a good idea, but seemed to be executed in a hurry, so it did not feel like a good easy read. Examples sounded a bit hollow too.

I enjoyed reading this book. It brings good examples of how to establish OKRs with clarity and also making them challenging enough to motivate people.

This is an excellent book. If you really want to learn more regarding Objectives and Key Results this is the book you must read.Author had explained everything in a way that anyone can understand.Good examples regarding some big organisations like Google, Zyngna , LinkedIn and more.I really enjoyed reading this book and learnt a lot. It's time to implement it now.A must read book for all the start up and small to big organisations.

Sencillo y prácticoIncluye una narrativa práctica de aplicación de OKRs en una Star UpsLo recomiendo a lectores de negocios

El libro empieza con una historia larga y al principio creí que podría ser una pérdida de tiempo.Pero más adelante comienza la disertación teórica con ejemplos prácticos que iba buscando.Si eres alguien que va buscando una metodología que promueva la gestión por objetivos (OKR’s), el enfoque de la organización hacia ellos y como conseguir que el sistema funcione y esté presente en el día a día de cada miembro del equipo, te lo recomiendo encarecidamente.

I agree with the other comments that this book was not properly edited. HOWEVER, I read books so I can learn something, not so I can criticize authors about minor spelling errors. On the learning point, this book definitly delivered. The first half was a story that drilled home what the OKR implementation experience is like and why it's important. The second half delivers the theory of OKRs in a short, digestible, and actionable way. I'm very happy with this book and recommend it to anyone trying to focus their employees on the initiatives that will grow there business (see what I did there).
