I was first introduced to this by Kyle Porter of SalesLoft when we rebooted the company in 2013. He has sent one of these emails without fail every Sunday evening for the past 8 years (with a few rare substitutions by others). It's sent to everyone at the company, investors, advisors, and interested third parties.
It's a fantastic tool for accountability and can be a huge driver for performance. Including some sort of metrics is really the key. You can see those grow and change over time, which can be a great motivator. And you can change them whenever they stop making sense, so they're more flexible than something like OKRs that might be locked to a quarter.
I recommend it even to solo bootstrapped founders. Just having this history of progress is great to look back on. And even sending it to yourself gives you something to work towards every week.
