I found that OKR (Objectives and Key Results) is part of the secret sauce in Silicon Valley to succeed as a business or a person as it helps to be focus.

As usual at GI, we give back part of profits of the business to the Fair Business Deal Innovation Foundation to finance great causes like cancer research, brain diseases, autism, homeless people & poverty, animal protection, environment...
