I wrote this book in response to clients who asked, "What really works?"  Examples range from Fortune 500 global organizations, to sales teams in retail, to individuals in career transition.  This is the first and only book that applies OKRs at all levels of leadership:  organizations, teams and individuals.  We all need a little coaching expertise at times.  Thanks for joining the OKR Leadership movement.
