Do you have a grip on your business or does your business have a grip on you?

Most entrepreneurs and business leaders face similar frustrations — personnel conflict, profit woes, and inadequate growth. Decisions never seem to get made, or, once made, fail to be properly implemented. But there is a solution. It's not complicated or theoretical. The Entrepreneurial Operating System® (EOS) is a practical method for achieving the business success you have always envisioned. More than 10,000 companies have discovered what EOS can do.

A more practical guide for small businesses to utilize the EOS concept.

It is a thought-through approach, but bear in mind that the audience is small-businesses up to approx 1 000 staff. Useful, if you don't need a hardcore Operating Model.
