Steve Jobs had a thing, he called it the "100." Every quarter, he would go around the company and tap on the shoulder up to 100 people that he felt, if he ever had to start over again at Apple, that he would bring with him. Every quarter they would go to Half Moon Bay, do an offsite for two days with 100 people, and they would list the 10 priorities that they think we need to do next quarter.
