Описание: INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER'For anyone interested in becoming a better manager' - Bill Gates--------Discover the revolutionary approach to goal-setting behind the explosive growth of Intel, Google, Amazon and Uber. In 1999, legendary venture capitalist John Doerr invested nearly $12 million in a small startup that had amazing technology, entrepreneurial energy and sky-high ambitions, but no real business plan. After implementing Doerr's system of Objectives and Key Results (OKRs), the company grew exponentially.
Today, that same startup - Google - has a market cap exceeding $600 billion. Doerr has introduced OKRs to more than fifty companies, helping tech giants and charities exceed all expectations. In the OKR model, objectives define what we seek to achieve and key results are how those top priority goals will be attained.
They focus effort, foster coordination and enhance workplace satisfaction. For the first time in Measure What Matters, Doerr shares behind-the-scenes case studies to demonstrate the agility and explosive growth that OKRs have spurred at so many leading organizations. With a foreword by Larry Page, and contributions from Bono and Bill Gates, this book will show you how to collect timely, relevant data to track progress - to measure what matters.
It will help any organization or team aim high, move fast, and excel.

Описание: Our Expanded Bilingual Editions present the Cherokee text in both old and new syllabary, Cherokee phonetics, and King James English to facilitate study and retention of the Cherokee language. Matthew's Gospel is a companion to the Cherokee New Testament digitized and released in 2013. Translated into Cherokee in the nineteenth century under the direction of Revs. Samuel Worcester and Elias Boudinot, the Cherokee New Testament is the largest complex text composed in Cherokee by fluent speakers with an command of a high level of the language. For generations, the New Testament has been used by Cherokees of all persuasions to learn to speak and write as their ancestors did. Perhaps more so than the other Gospels, Matthew was written to Jewish Christians rather than gentile converts. Matthew draws parallels between Jesus' experiences and those of Israel itself, with five long sermons paralleling the five books of Moses: Sermon on the Mount, Missionary Discourse, Parables, Discourse on the Church, Olivet Discourse. Matthew shows greater respect for Jewish law and tradition than do the other Gospel authors, even making a point of using the phrase "kingdom of heaven" 31 times, where other gospels say "kingdom of God," to avoid using God's name in vain. The respect for indigenous tradition is shown in little ways, such as the translation of "hell" as tsusgina-yi, literally, "ghost land" of Cherokee tradition. We hope that this volume, richly illustrated with the work of Gustave Dore, is a blessing for both your intellect and spirit.

Описание: Luke's Gospel contains narrative history, genealogy, sermons, parables (19 of them), and prophesy. Luke, a doctor and a Greek-speaking Christian, accompanied Paul on mission journeys, which he wrote about in the Acts of the Apostles. This Gospel was written to record an accurate account of the life of Jesus Christ. Luke wrote presenting Jesus as the "Son of Man," and the Savior of all humanity, using a literary level of Greek to reach the non-Jewish world. While the Cherokee Gospels were translated directly from the Greek Textus Receptus rather than from an existing translation such as the King James Version, response from Cherokee clergy and language teachers infomred us that they would prefer the English be taken from the King James. We present each verse in Old Syllabary, New Syllabary, and phonetic Cherokee as well as English to promote study of the Cherokee language.
Most startups fail. But many of those failures are preventable. The Lean Startup is a new approach being adopted across the globe, changing the way companies are built and new products are launched.
Eric Ries defines a startup as an organization dedicated to creating something new under conditions of extreme uncertainty. This is just as true for one person in a garage or a group of seasoned professionals in a Fortune 500 boardroom. What they have in common is a mission to penetrate that fog of uncertainty to discover a successful path to a sustainable business. The Lean Startup approach fosters companies that are both more capital efficient and that leverage human creativity more effectively. Inspired by lessons from lean manufacturing, it relies on -validated learning, - rapid scientific experimentation, as well as a number of counter-intuitive practices that shorten product development cycles, measure actual progress without resorting to vanity metrics, and learn what customers really want. It enables a company to shift directions with agility, altering plans inch by inch, minute by minute. Rather than wasting time creating elaborate business plans, The Lean Startup offers entrepreneurs - in companies of all sizes - a way to test their vision continuously, to adapt and adjust before it's too late. Ries provides a scientific approach to creating and managing successful startups in a age when companies need to innovate more than ever.

Описание: ""They're complex, these things we build our hearts around."" Times change. People change. Places change. The good and the bad comes and goes. We move in circles; we move in lines; we move in slow motion. The more things change, the more they remain the same. But one thing remains constant through all of time and place: Love. This book is a meditation on the ebb and flow of love in these changing times. The screw-ups, suck-ups, epiphanies, black holes, celestial awakenings, and confusions of the thing considered mystical to some, and impossible to others. Told from the perspective of a middle-aged lover-in-training, these poems have all the joy, all the pain, and all the wonder, but resonate through eyes that have traveled a few miles down that sometimes-lonesome highway of romance. A book of meaning, wonder, laughter, and tears that women will adore... but don't be fooled, men, because you'll root for it, too While the women are smiling in romantic bliss, you men will be wondering where this "guidebook" has been all your lives. Romance is not dead Knuckleheads still abound Love, sweet love is still the kindest medicine of them all. It takes an experienced traveler to understand what to make of love. Charles P. Ries is guide, guru, therapist, participant, and equal-opportunity opportunist, as well as the blind leading the lost. Yet, through it all, his true north remains "love," and his destination remains this singular realization of what it is to be fully alive and human. Sample:
"Influences of Light" It happens each early summer. She backs off her anti-depressants, thinking more UV rays can substitute for her drugs. She comes out swinging, determined to reclaim what is rightfully hers. For a day or a week, she's a warrior but quickly fades into a humble, tumble, pile of bewilderment. (It's hard to sustain determination on just sunlight. Warmth alone isn't enough to help you think straight.) Following her short freedom flight, she becomes earthbound, a cloud that hovers low against a county trunk road- a vaporous curtain that flattens and abducts you. But you drive on, and eventually pass through it, through her. And bring her to a small hill where you ask her to look a great distance and remember tomorrow or yesterday or her true nature with the ease of her winter-fresh mind. Readers say:
"In this book, Ries successfully turns trope into transcendence. As he debunks the mythology of Cupid with deft humor and insight, Ries simultaneously invokes the nine muses, morphing himself into a modern-day Cyrano de Bergerac, an inimitable inamorato brimming with Bodhisattva wit and Casanova charm. Forget all you know about Venus and Mars Here, you'll find eros, phileo, and agape kindled in brilliant coalescence, ready for the reverential caress of your mind's naked eye. Make no mistake, these are poems you'll want to know by heart." -Charles Nevsimal, Editor/Publisher at Centennial Press "Ries' poems reveal a certain vulnerability as he reflects on his relationships. These poems are written beautifully and have such a unique and quiet voice to them. His search to have the mystery of love answered, is answered. This book is meaningful, sad, witty, intimate, delicate, and extraordinarily good. These poems read like little elegies full of heart. An honesty we all crave." -Gloria Mindock, Editor/Publisher at Cervena Barva Press More:
