About this listen

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

All 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 is a practical method for achieving the business success you have always envisioned. More than 2,000 companies have discovered what EOS can do.

InTraction, you’ll learn the secrets of strengthening the six key components of your business. You’ll discover simple yet powerful ways to run your company that will give you and your leadership team more focus, more growth, and more enjoyment. Successful companies are applying Traction every day to run profitable, frustration-free businesses - and you can too.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

finally, a sensible model for running and growing any type of business

Traction describes a complete process description and implementation sequence for setting up a business for success. Wish I'd read this 20 years ago. Having undertaken this journey indeoendently I can vouch for the process.

Magic. Read it twice and implementation now.

It can be alot at first depending where you at I am sure. 1 year later with some more management team member and clear vision in place now this is gold to me.

Great content, but unsurprisingly boring

You can't really make this stuff too entertaining, so I agree with some other reviews that say the book could've been a pamphlet. HOWEVER I've started doing a few of the things they suggest, and I don't think I would've started them if they hadn't been repeated to me over and over again over the space of a week.

Oh wow wait a sec..... I bet if I go back and count, they repeat all the important bits at least seven times 🤔

Anyways the system sounds awesome for me, I love organised systems and every chapter just sounded exactly how I WANT to run my business but I just haven't gotten around to it. The system has given me a check list of sorts to tidy up my system and I love it. I think I'm all in, we'll see how the first few things work out...
