We finished (just) Four Obsessions of an Extraordinary Executive and I can see so much of the inspiration behind EOS. It makes sense. My biggest takeaway was all about how an agile or nimble company is NOT a company that lacks clarity and structure, but in fact the opposite!

Episode 178 of our week-daily virtual coffee, which takes place in Konktown’s discord server: discord.gg/konktown and Clubhouse’s Startup Club House from 8-9am EST. It’s free and open to anyone from anywhere in the world.

• Sharing strategies for achieving organizational clarity through questioning, including identifying core values and mission.
• Discussing the importance of effective communication in organizations through repetition, simple messages, and multiple mediums.
• Highlighting cascading communication and social audio as powerful tools for sharing information.
• Stressing the need to maintain organizational clarity through human systems like hiring, performance management, rewards, and dismissals.
• Encouraging listeners to prioritize organizational health and discipline for extraordinary leadership.
