Using EOS to Create Clarity and Traction in Your Practice with Tom Restivo

from 20/20 MONEY: The Business of Optometry · host Adam Cmejla

Ever wonder if, when, or how to build stronger operations within your practice? In this episode, I sit down with Tom Restivo to unpack EOS and what it looks like to build a stronger operational foundation inside an optometric practice. Tom shares his experience leading a rapidly growing eye care organization through expansion, complexity, and the pressures that eventually exposed where systems were missing. We talk about why growth without structure creates avoidable friction, how core values shape hiring and leadership decisions, and why vision has to be more than a vague idea if you want your team aligned.   We also get practical about how EOS actually works inside a practice. Tom breaks down the six key components of the system, the role of the Vision Traction Organizer, how Rocks help teams focus on the right priorities, and why Level 10 Meetings can transform communication and accountability. If you are feeling like the business is starting to run you instead of the other way around, this conversation offers a useful framework for creating more clarity, consistency, and traction in your practice.   Resources: Book a Triage call with Adam Download the Practice Owner's Financial Toolkit 20/20 Money Ultimate Financial Success Masterclass OD Mastermind Interest Form Check out Adam's new book: How to Buy an Optometry Practice Tom Restivo's LinkedIn EOS Worldwide Traction: Get a Grip on Your Business by Gino Wickman   ————————————————————————————— Please rate and subscribe to 20/20 Money on these platforms Apple Podcasts Spotify ————————————————————————————— For past episodes of 20/20 Money with full companion show notes, please check out our episode archive here!   Check out Adam's other podcast!
