Google and OKRs

Okrs objectives and key results were pioneered by Andy Grove at intel in the 1970s. They're a simple yet powerful system to define your goals and measure progress. An objective is your big picture goal, what you want to achieve. The key results are measurable outcomes that show you're making progress towards that goal. When Google adopted okrs in 1999, the company was just a startup. Today, they're a global giant, and OKRs have been instrumental in their success. For example, when Larry Page set the objective to organize the world's information, the key results included launching Google search and indexing billions of web pages. By breaking massive goals into measurable steps, OKRs made the impossible achievable.
