Strategic Counsel: Is EOS Right for Your Business? With Sue Frech, Summit Shore Partners
Have you ever considered EOS – the Entrepreneurial Operating System? It was first introduced by Gino Wickman in his book Traction: Get a Grip on Your Business. Since then, it has become a tool many small and medium businesses leverage to drive operational excellence. But how does it work – and how do you know if EOS is right for you? We wanted you to learn from an EOS Implementer who has achieved a ton of success in the business world with EOS, so we welcomed back on returning guest Sue Frech. She’s the Visionary & Investor at Summit Shore Partners. Here’s a small sample of what you will hear in this episode:
- What is EOS?
- The pros and cons of self implementation v.s a professional
- Why EOS teaches foundational tools first, not vision
- The role of an EOS implementer
- Common mistakes in EOS implementation
