The six key components of a business

Wickman introduces us to the six key components that make or break any business, and he pairs each component with invaluable EOS resources:

  1. Crystal clear vision: Your business's core purpose and direction. EOS helps you define a clear, inspiring vision that drives your company forward. Resource*: a Vision Traction Organizer to crystallize your vision.

  2. Radical accountability: Having the right people in the right seats is paramount.
    Resource: an Accountability Chart to clarify roles and responsibilities + the People Analyzer to see if you have the proper person in place.

  3. Data-driven decision-making is at the heart of EOS. It helps you establish scorecards and KPIs to know where your business stands.
    Resource: the EOS Scorecard keeps you on track.

  4. Root issue resolution: Identify and solve problems at their root; don’t dance around them. EOS encourages directness in tackling issues head-on, creating a healthier and more productive work environment (resource: the Issues List and Level 10 Meeting Agenda provide a structured approach)

  5. Process perfection: Streamline and document your core processes to ensure consistency and scalability. It's the difference between ‘good enough’ and ‘exceptional'.
