SUMMARY: In this episode,Terryn and Aaron dive into the critical topic of metrically measuring your team's performance using Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), a cornerstone of the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS). They explore how to create meaningful KPIs that align with job descriptions, org charts, and business goals to drive accountability and success.   This episode includes practical steps for building KPIs, starting with clear job descriptions that outline measurable outcomes. Terryn shares insights on using tools like the Gap Analyzer to inventory team responsibilities and identify gaps or overlaps, ensuring every role has 3-5 core duties tied to trackable metrics. They emphasize the importance of integrating KPIs into quarterly evaluations (like EOS's 5-5-5 framework) and scorecards to maintain clarity and focus.They also tackle common pitfalls, such as visionary leaders chasing KPIs without a clear purpose or overloading scorecards with too many metrics. From leadership-level scorecards tracking financials, sales, and customer support metrics to department-level KPIs, the hosts highlight the need for simplicity and relevance.   Tune in for actionable strategies to implement KPIs effectively, avoid “chasing the same hamster around the wheel,” and commit to an operating system that transforms your business.

In this lively episode of the HR Famous podcast, host Tim Sackett welcomes Jonathan Reynolds, CEO and self-described "visionary" of Titus Talent Strategies. The two dive into an authentic, humorous, and deeply insightful conversation about leadership, culture, and what it really takes to build high-performing teams. Jonathan shares how he ended up with the "visionary" title, explaining the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) approach, where someone sets the vision (the "why" and "where") while others execute. He admits to having endless ideas but relies on his team to focus and execute effectively. Their discussion reveals Jonathan's unique talent for spotting raw potential in people, not just hiring based on skills, but on alignment with core values and the broader vision. They also explore Titus Talent's approach to talent strategy, going beyond traditional recruiting to focus on character, integrity, and cultural fit. Jonathan illustrates this with stories of team members whose lives he transformed, highlighting his “curator of talent” mindset. The episode explores the significance of work for younger generations, questioning the notion that a job must always feel deeply meaningful. Instead, Jonathan suggests that meaning often comes from the impact a role has on one's life and community. Titus showcases this by collecting personal stories from candidates 90 days after placement, emphasizing personal transformations over mere job titles or paychecks. Tim and Jonathan also tackle topics like remote work culture, philanthropic initiatives tailored to employees' passions, and creative interviewing techniques designed to gauge true motivation and cultural fit. The result is an honest, thought-provoking, and funny look at modern leadership and talent strategy — perfect for HR pros and business leaders alike.

One of the biggest pain points for first-time founders is a lack of structure within their business. One of the most popular frameworks for quickly creating structure is the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), but does it really live up to the hype? In this episode of In Demand, Asia and Kim do a deep dive into EOS. They break down its key components, where it works (and where it doesn't), and why most founders should treat it more like a toolbox than a strict rulebook.

Alex Freytag's "Stretch Not Snap" is a business fable that addresses a common challenge faced by entrepreneurial companies: how to transform the employee mindset into one of ownership, engagement, and shared vision, particularly through the strategic implementation of incentive plans.The book builds upon the foundation laid in another  business fable book by Gino Wickman and Mike Paton's "Get A Grip”. Freytag revisits the characters of Vic and Eileen, the leaders of Swan Services, as they navigate the next phase of their entrepreneurial journey.The story opens with Vic and Eileen facing a growing frustration. While their company, Swan Services, has successfully implemented the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) – gaining traction, clarity on priorities, and leadership team alignment – they observe a fundamental disconnect among their employees. Despite the company's progress and the leaders' dedication, a prevailing "me-first" or "entitlement" mentality has taken root. Employees seem to expect bonuses and rewards merely for showing up, rather than genuinely connecting their daily efforts to the company's overarching vision and financial health. This disengagement is stifling Swan Services' potential and preventing the full realization of its culture.The core of "Stretch Not Snap" is the unfolding of the ProfitWorks Solution, a methodology designed to create a self-funded incentive plan that genuinely drives employee engagement and financial results. The fable illustrates this solution through the practical challenges and successes faced by Vic, Eileen, and their team. The essence of the ProfitWorks Solution revolves around six key principles:1. Financial Literacy and Transparency2. Identifying Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and Leading Measures3. The Self-Funded Incentive Plan4. Ending the Entitlement Mentality5. Sharing the Vision and Building Ownership6.

EOS is a simple, proven framework to help business owners get what they want from their business by focusing on:Vision – Clear goals and a roadmap to get there.People – Right people in the right seats.Data – Running the business on facts, not feelings.Issues – Identifying and solving problems at their root.Process – Systematizing key operations.Traction – Ensuring day-to-day execution aligns with long-term goals.Why EOS Works for Small Outdoor BrandsEOS helps create the kind of business where founders can finally take a vacation—because everyone knows what they're supposed to be doing and is actually doing it. It's especially powerful for companies with fractional or remote teams.Real Results From smoother product launches to founders finally stepping out of the daily grind, Dawson shares stories of transformation that make a compelling case for EOS—even (or especially) for companies under 50 employees.Links & Show Notes:KORE OutdoorsThe EOS Vision/Traction OrganizerBooks mentioned:TractionWhat The Heck is EOS?

Implementing Entrepreneurial Operating Systems (EOS) in Your Business with Derek Newcomer   Have you ever felt like you were great at your craft—but struggling to build a real business around it? You're not alone. In this episode of The Profit Answer Man, we talk to someone who lived that exact journey and came out stronger for it. Meet Derek Newcomer—a former fitness entrepreneur who learned the hard way that being a great coach isn't enough. Today, he's a certified EOS Implementer guiding business owners to gain control, clarity, and consistent results using the Entrepreneurial Operating System.   If you're a business owner feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unable to delegate without chaos, this episode is your wake-up call. Derek's story is proof that you can align your vision, structure your team, and scale without losing your mind—or your money.   In This Episode, You Will Learn: Why being great at your craft doesn't mean you're great at running a business. The hard lessons Derek learned about delegation, leadership, and control. How EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) became the framework that changed everything. The step-by-step process he uses to help teams execute on vision without burning out. Why "letting go of the vine" is one of the hardest—and most profitable—moves you'll ever make.   Key Takeaways: Don't Confuse Skill with Strategy: Derek was a top-tier fitness coach, but success in business required a whole new skill set—systems, delegation, and financial discipline. Delegation Requires Process, Not Just Trust: One of Derek's biggest mistakes was failing to train his team with structured systems. He learned the power of documenting what works and holding others accountable to results. Vision Without Execution Is a Fantasy: EOS helped him—and now his clients—translate big goals into daily actions that actually move the needle. Pain Leads to Clarity: Derek's business struggles became the training ground for the financial and operational clarity he now brings to his clients. Entrepreneurs Need Coaches Too: EOS Implementers act as that strategic, outside perspective to keep business owners out of the weeds and focused on growth.   About Derek Newcomer: Derek Newcomer is a Certified EOS Implementer who's guided over 20 companies through more than 225 full-day EOS sessions. With a background in fitness coaching, leadership development, and executive coaching, Derek brings a unique mix of hands-on experience and strategic insight. He combines business systems, leadership development, and personal growth to help entrepreneurs lead well, scale effectively, and build businesses that serve their lives—not consume them.   Conclusion: Ready to Work On Your Business Instead of In It? This episode is more than just a story—it's a roadmap. If Derek's journey resonated with you, maybe it's time to evaluate your own systems, margins, and team accountability. Want help? Our coaching programs are built around Profit First, EOS, and Scaling Up principles that help business owners like you get back control and boost profitability.

Does running your creative business sometimes feel like a circus? You're juggling tasks, managing projects, and trying to keep everything in motion, while secretly wondering if there's a better way. In this episode, I'm sharing one of the most transformative shifts I've made in my business: implementing an operating system. An operating system isn't just for big corporations. No matter the size of your business, having a structured framework helps bring clarity, alignment, and efficiency to your workflow. It can transform how you work, how your team communicates, and how your business grows. I dive into: The signs that your business needs an operating system (miscommunication, delays, and inefficiencies sound familiar?) How the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) completely changed the way my team operates Other systems you might consider, including Scaling Up and 4DX (The Four Disciplines of Execution) Four actionable steps to streamline your business: Choose a system that fits your business size and needs Align your team around a clear vision Implement key tools like scorecards, priorities (Rocks), and an issues list Run structured, productive meetings to keep everyone on track I know that structure might sound like it stifles creativity, but I've found the opposite to be true. A strong operating system actually frees you up to be more creative because you're not constantly managing chaos. With clear processes in place, you can focus on doing the work you love.

Do you ever feel like your business is entirely on your shoulders, like every decision, deadline, and detail depends on you alone? I see you. I've been there too. But what if you could empower your team to not only take on tasks but truly own them—sometimes even doing them better than you? In this episode, we're diving into the power of delegation and trust. I know firsthand how difficult it is to let go, especially when your work is deeply personal. But the reality is that refusing to delegate is the riskiest move of all. It keeps you stuck in a cycle of overwork and burnout, limiting your impact and slowing your growth. If you want to step into true leadership and scale your business, you have to build a team that doesn't just support you, they lead alongside you. I share my own turning point, when I realized I couldn't keep carrying everything alone. By implementing the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) and building clear accountability structures, my team started thriving. In this episode, I walk you through the exact framework I use to empower my team, including: Defining roles clearly with an accountability chart Starting small to build trust gradually Setting clear expectations using 90-day goals (or “rocks”) Holding weekly check-ins to maintain progress and solve challenges together Celebrating wins because recognition fuels motivation When you put these strategies into place, you create a business that runs efficiently, a team that feels empowered, and the freedom to focus on the work that truly lights you up. If you're ready to take action, I've also created a Delegation Checklist to guide you step by step. Download it from the show notes at theprofessionalcreative.com. Let's build a business where trust and leadership go hand in hand.
