System & Soul Business Operating Framework

Growing businesses inevitably run into the following:

  • The pain and inefficiency of a dysfunctional team

  • A lack of systems to support rapid expansion

  • Misaligned vision and strategy with consistent execution

    These problems are common and complex. Founders and leaders like you are often willing and ready to change, but lack a catalyst or a clear plan to make change last. You need a proven plan and framework to reach a breakthrough.

FAQs

Who is System and Soul (S2) fit for?

While any organization can and would benefit from System & Soul (S2), it's been found to be ideal for companies with $2 million or more in annual revenue and 10+ full-time employees.

When doesn't S2 work?

System & Soul (S2) won't work if you're unwilling to honestly examine the key elements of your organization and aren't open to running your organization differently.

S2 also won't work if you don't want to work on your culture and all you want is "more productivity" from your people without investing in your people and the environment.

How is S2 different than EOS?

EOS's strength is in creating a strong system of processes and procedures to scale your company. However, the problem with focusing on systems in a silo is that we neglect the people that make those systems work.

That's where System & Soul (S2) is a great evolution from EOS in the lineage of business frameworks.

System & Soul (S2) is the only business framework built on the humanity of the organization.

What industry is S2 best suited for?

System & Soul (S2) is industry-agnostic because it is a framework instead of being a specific method of industry operations or playbook.

Will this work for non-profits?

Yes. In most cases, there is very little difference in how the System & Soul (S2) framework is applied in non-profits. The main difference can come from how involved the board of directors would like to be or if the operating senior leadership team is empowered to make decisions with relative autonomy.

Are sessions in-person or virtual?

Yes!

Depending on your needs, we can facilitate sessions either in person or virtually.

We do have one rule: if one person is virtual, then we're all virtual!

That may mean that several members of your senior leadership team (SLT) participate from their own office if you're in a shared office space.

Having a hybrid presence produces poor results because of the imbalance of engagement and having people's voices heard.

Do you have a guarantee?

Yes, we do! For any of the System & Soul (S2) sessions, we guarantee you'll receive value, or you don't pay (or *refund if you pre-paid)
