056: Creating Traction through EOS with John Fulwider

"You can't differentiate yourself in the marketplace on smarts. You need to differentiate yourself on team health." – John Fulwider On this episode of The Pivotal Leader, Gina Trimarco interviewed John Fulwider, CEO, gear80. John helps entrepreneurial leadership teams get everything they want from their businesses. He implements a complete, proven system with a set of simple, practical tools that helps businesses get vision, traction, and healthy. John founded his fourth company, gear80, when two clients of his third business—an executive coaching firm with clients nationwide—said the same thing to him in the same week: "John, I need tools." For both clients' companies, the vision was clear, and their teams were healthy and cohesive. But accountability, discipline, and execution to link the two were absent. John went looking for tools and found the Entrepreneurial Operating System in the book Traction, and he's never looked back. While he charges a lot for his other services, his advice on eating out is always free and he gives some great foodie recommendations!
