The path to increased performance and loss prevention is through the heart of the business – the humans who make up the organization.
There's a revolution going on and it revolves around human energy.
The Surgeon General's framework for "curing" toxicity in the workplace is good, but it doesn't go far enough.
Give the humans on your team what they need to be healthy, to thrive, to grow, to perform, and to SHINE!
For scalability, sustainability, and profitability we have to get people fired up.
Activating human potential has to be our first and foremost mission as leaders of human teams if we want to have the opportunity to lead healthy, high-performing, self-actualized teams and increase what I call our “Return on Individual.”
Four timeless ingredients for building great teams that drive business success
Without clarity, people are confused.
Teams, businesses, and organizations only succeed or fail to the extent that they harness human energy and people potential.
I think it’s a safe bet that you have, at some point in your career, been part of a toxic team. I know I’ve had what felt like more than my fair share of that experience and I have yet to talk with anyone who doesn’t know how that feels.
As the news about COVID-19 unfolded and it became clear remote work was no longer an optional employee benefit but rather a necessity, I told my clients we needed to get ahead of the challenges that would arise from having most, if not all, of their teams working virtually. Several of them responded by saying, “There’s nothing to get ahead of, this is great!”
As leaders and managers, we tend to focus on things we can measure. And the capacity of human beings is immeasurable. Maybe that’s why so many business leaders fail to focus on their people when they sit down to create a strategic plan.

Your success as a business leader will most likely come down to a series of human moments. What are human moments? That’s what I call those unpredictable events when our humanity really comes to the surface.
Leading a business is a challenge under any circumstances. It’s a juggling act of managing strategies, projects, and teams.
Healthy teams actually forgo the temptation of “going easy” in favor of taking risks and taking on challenges. And they become healthier as a result.
Human beings are hardwired to strive. We find meaning in stretch goals and high aspirations, we get fired up by taking on tough assignments and “impossible” missions. It’s part of our nature.
When I speak to audiences of business leaders about The Six Facets of Human Needs™ or what I often refer to as “the six Cs”, there is one subject that always results in a lively … well let’s just call it a “discussion.” And that is the debate around whether or not to share strategy with your team and, if so, with whom and to what extent.
You want people who are innovative, capable, resilient, and adaptable? Here’s what they need from you to get there.
All success is created one human moment at a time.

How well do you swim? By “swim,” I actually mean “network.”When business leaders network to meet new clients, they have a tendency to spend a lot of time and effort on it. In the end, many of them wonder what results they're getting from all the effort. Unless you focus on target market networking, you won’t get the results you're hoping for.Yet many of us continue to jump right back into the pool and swim harder.
After completing the 3-Step Process Documenter™, and before the Core Process can be Followed By All (FBA), it's a best practice to do a review of the processes as a leadership team. One of the main reasons for doing this is that many processes integrate between departments and each department head will want to ensure they are in agreement with any departmental handoff points that have been defined.
Do you ever get stuck on how to delegate effectively? Have you ever considered that delegation can be done creatively?
While helping companies implement the EOS Process Component™, we will often hear someone on the leadership team say, “We already have our processes documented!”. In a Quarterly EOS Session, a deeper look often reveals that they do have some “procedures” documented but not an outcome-based process.
After completing the 3 Step Process Documenter™, and before the Core Process can be Followed by All (FBA), it's a best practice to do a review of the processes as a Leadership Team. I’ve had leadership teams hit a roadblock on their process documentation because they didn’t know when the process was completed or good enough to move forward. They simply weren’t sure what the final output was supposed to look like.
As EOS Implementers we get asked all the time, “Why hire a professional implementer? Can I use the book to self implement?” The first point to make is that you absolutely can use the book, Traction by Gino Wickman, and download the free tools to implement EOS, the Entrepreneurial Operating System®, in your organization. However we see a few pitfalls that are common when someone decides to self implement. And, there is tremendous value in bringing in an expert resource to help you fully implement EOS.
"It's lonely at the top! "Well, I hate to break it to you... it might be lonely because you make it lonely.
As a business leader at a small or medium business you struggle with some primary barriers to growth: ineffective people and teams, lack of profit or cash flow, hitting the ceiling on growth (and, unable to scale your business), you're out of control (the business is running you), inconsistent or lack of execution, and trying to do a ton of stuff that simply doesn't work.
