How to Escape The innovator's Dilemma

“Where there is no vision, the people perish.” - Proverbs 29:18 “Clarify your vision and you will make better decisions about people, processes, finances, strategies, and customers.” - Gino Wickman We love to work with owners of businesses running on EOS Worldwide. The vision component is a big part of it; creating a foundation for getting ready for the inevitable transfer of business ownership and leadership. We take inspiration from EOS in our work and we understand the importance of having a clear vision, guided by core values, before seeking out solutions. Making decisions before you have a clear vision that everyone embraces leads to using band aids 🩹🩹🩹 to treat symptoms and not the real problems. #vision #businessvision #businessowners #businessplanning #businessprotection #eos #bvpp #seattle

How does this create value for stakeholders? Here’s the deal about deals: if someone asks “How does this create value for stakeholders?” and your answer is a struggling, “Oh uh…synergies?”, it’s time to take a long, hard look in the mirror. Your stakeholders want clear, tangible value—think profits, growth, new markets, innovation or, maybe, just fewer awkward investor calls. If the value isn’t obvious, it probably isn’t there.
