OKR Journey in Practice


Book Description

Learn concepts and practices in OKR with the experiences of 42 people leading the adoption of OKRs in various sectors of the Brazilian and international market. Learn about the challenges and best practices in a journey of OKR implementation. “In this work, another goal of this fantastic initiative called Jornada Colaborativa, we have a deepening of the concepts, context-based applications and, mainly, real market cases, which will surely help you in this VUCA/BANI world where short-term objectives are increasingly necessary.” - Vitor Massari, preface Jornada Colaborativa Together we are smarter and more lives are transformed! Once upon a time there was a university professor who dreamed of releasing a book when he finished his master’s degree in 2007. After some ideas for publication on topics such as Microsoft certification, project management and service management, the dream began to be fulfilled in 2017 with the book “Jornada DevOps” (DevOps Journey), but some obstacles stopped its evolution after the definition of the final structure for the official EXIN certification and the writing of three chapters. In September 2018, during a lecture at PUC Minas, a click emerged: “would other people passionate about DevOps help with collaborative writing?” Dozens of people accepted the invitation and the book was released to 350 people on June 6, 2019 at the SulAmérica Convention Center in Rio de Janeiro, after intense coordinated work with people from several cities who had never worked together before. After this successful experience with many learning experiences, the team’s escalation created great friendships, new initiatives and a donation of R$ 251,500.00 to institutions, with 11 books launched. We dream of transforming more lives with collective intelligence and the support of friendly companies... Antonio Muniz Founder of Jornada Colaborativa, organization and curation of 20 books.

Mari’S Miracle


Book Description

On a cool, autumn day in Canada, a tiny egg hatches under a milkweed plant. As Mari the caterpillar is born, she is surrounded by beautiful monarch butterflies that gracefully soar around the orange blossoms. Mari can hardly wait until she grows big enough to have wings to fly! It is not long before Mari grows large and gets very tired. She spins a chrysalis and slips inside, falling into a deep sleep as her body begins to change. As soon as she awakens, Mari unfolds her orange and black wings, dries them in the sun, and begins flying from flower to flower. Soon, it is time for her to catch a current and embark on a magnificent migration that will take her more than two thousand miles over New York City to the hills of West Virginia and finally to a mountain in Mexico where the circle of life begins once again. Written in both Spanish and English, Maris Miracle tells the delightful, educational, and touching tale of a migrating monarch butterflys adventures, seeking to encourage learning and good stewardship of our planet.

Doniphan's Epic March


Book Description

In 1846-1847, a ragtag army of 800 American volunteers marched 3,500 miles across deserts and mountains, through Indian territory and into Mexico. There they handed the Mexican army one of its most demoralizing defeats and helped the United States win its first foreign war. Their leader Colonel Alexander Doniphan, also a volunteer, was a "natural soldier" of towering stature who became a national hero in the wake of his wartime exploits. Doniphan was a small-town Missouri lawyer untrained in military matters when he answered President Polk's call for volunteers in the war with Mexico. Working from a host of primary sources, Joseph Dawson focuses on Doniphan's extraordinary leadership and chronicles how the colonel and his 1st Missouri Mounted Regiment helped capture New Mexico and went on to invade Chihuahua. Contending with wildfires, sandstorms, poor provisions, and the threat of attack from Apaches, they eventually came face-to-face with the formidable cannon and cavalry of a much larger Mexican force. Yet, at the Battle of Sacramento, these hardy volunteers outflanked General Jose Heredia's army and claimed a stunning American victory on foreign soil. Dawson explores and analyzes the many facets of Doniphan's exploits, from the decision to proceed to Chihuahua in the wake of the Taos Revolt to the tactics that shaped his victory at Sacramento, describing that battle in heart-stopping detail. He tells how Doniphan's legal expertise enabled him to supervise America's first military government administering a conquered land at Santa Fe and highlights Doniphan's remarkable cooperation with U.S. Army officers at a time when antagonism typified relationships between volunteers and regulars. He also introduces readers to other key personalities of the campaign, from fellow officers Stephen W. Kearny and Meriwether L. Clark to James Kiker, the controversial scout whom Doniphan reluctantly trusted. Dawson's thorough account captures the expansionist mood of America in the mid-nineteenth century and helps us understand how American soldiers were motivated by the idea of Manifest Destiny. His portrait of Doniphan and his troops reinforces the importance of the citizen-soldier in American history and provides a new window on the war that changed forever the hopes and dreams of our border nations.
