    Vision 9: 1-Year Plan
    Feb 28 2024
    Welcome to Focus and Vision with Gino Wickman, where we help you master EOS®. This episode shifts focus to the Traction side of the V/TO®, emphasizing the creation of a clear 1-Year Plan as the driving force for the team’s next steps. We outline the three essential steps for setting up your 1-Year Plan: selecting a future date, determining Measurables, and prioritizing goals for your organization. Although this looks simple, it’s not easy to get the leadership team on the same page and rowing in the same direction. Moving forward, you’ll start to define financial goals, accountability, cash flow analysis, budgeting, and a clear Scorecard to measure the plan’s progress.

We’ll walk through how to identify the three to seven key priorities for your business, assign owners to each Rock, and maintain a laser focus on completing them to achieve organizational goals.

  • Focus 8: The Scorecard

    Focus 8: The Scorecard
    Feb 28 2024
    Welcome to Focus and Vision with Gino Wickman, where we help you master EOS®. We introduce the Scorecard in this episode. The Scorecard is a tool that focuses on the 5–15 Measurables that are critical to getting an absolute pulse on your business. Reviewing these numbers regularly will help you better predict outcomes and ensure your processes are on track. You may have heard them called dashboard or key performance indicators, but at EOS we call it the Scorecard. It may take some trial and error, but finding the right Measurables can help you foster accountability and inform decision-making for your business.
