Culture Focused Practice

Ever feel like your practice has déjà vu on loop? Like you're solving the same problem... again... for the third quarter in a row?

You're not imagining it — you're stuck in what I call “chronic problem recycling.” And spoiler: insight alone isn’t gonna fix it.

In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly why you’re spinning in circles and how EOS gives you real-deal traction — not just another brainstorm session with zero follow-through. We’re talking tools, not theory: the Issues List, Scorecard, and Accountability Chart. I walk through each one with real examples from practice leadership life and show you how these containers for chaos help create rhythm, structure, and actual momentum.

This one’s for the practice owners, leaders, and ops-minded folks who are ready to stop patching and start building systems that hold.
