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.

Eileen Sharp and Vic Hightower were frustrated. After years of profitable, predictable growth, Swan Services was in a rut. Meetings were called and discussions held, but few decisions were made and even less got done. People were pointing fingers and assigning blame, but nothing happened to solve Swan’s mounting problems. It felt as though they were working harder than ever but with less impact. The company Eileen and Vic had founded and built for 10 years was a different place. It just wasn’t fun anymore.

Most startups don't fail because they can't build a product. Most startups fail because they can't get traction. Startup advice tends to be a lot of platitudes repackaged with new buzzwords, but Traction is something else entirely. As Gabriel Weinberg and Justin Mares learned from their own experiences, building a successful company is hard. For every startup that grows to the point where it can go public or be profitably acquired, hundreds of others sputter and die.

good general advice
I think it's just good general advice packaged in a new way. This is not a bad thing, if it helps it helps! kinda like sticking to a workout routine, I'm sure almost any routine will get you results, the key is sticking with it. ie a bowflex will not work any better then free weights, the key is doing it every day.

A useful slant that well supplements Traction etc
This was a really useful and practical read during our initial transition to EOS. The questions to ask was a good addition. Not just for employees by any means. It would be silly not to read this if you're interested in implementing EOS. Good job crew.
