Questions owners ask before getting started.

Business owners and leadership teams of growing companies, typically 10 to 250 employees, who feel stuck or overwhelmed or are ready to scale but lack clarity, alignment, or accountability. Many are law firms and professional services firms.

Mike Zappone built and sold his own business after 33 years and exited more than a dozen others, so he brings real operating experience and practical tools rather than theory.

EOS, the Entrepreneurial Operating System, is a set of simple tools and disciplines that helps a company clarify and communicate its vision, align its team, and execute with consistency and accountability.

EOS works best for growth-oriented companies of roughly 10 to 250 employees whose leaders are open, honest, and more frustrated with the status quo than afraid of change.

The implementer teaches the EOS tools and process, facilitates the leadership team's full-day sessions to keep them on track, and coaches from an outside perspective until the team can run EOS on its own.

Most leadership teams learn and adopt the full set of EOS tools over about two years of quarterly and annual sessions, after which they run EOS on their own.

The EOS Process starts with a free 90 Minute Meeting, followed by a Focus Day and two Vision Building days in the first months, then quarterly sessions and an annual planning session with the implementer.

The leadership team: typically the owner or managing partner and the three to eight people who lead the major functions of the business.

Yes. EOS works well in law firms because partners, practice areas, and support staff need one shared vision, clear accountability, and a weekly meeting rhythm. Mike Zappone works with law firms of different sizes and practice areas, in Florida, New York, and nationwide.

ProfitWorks designs self-funded, No-Entitlement Incentive Plans® that pay out only when the company wins against clear, measurable targets. Traditional bonuses are often subjective and come to feel expected regardless of company performance.

Yes. ProfitWorks was designed to complement EOS. It is not required, but a company needs a way to execute on goals and reliable data, which EOS provides.
