Vice President-Internet

I was the worst player on the JV varsity basketball team. The coach put me on the team, not for my miserable jump shot, but because, as he told me, “You’re not afraid to fight with the big boys.”

I didn’t care that I only played five minutes a game. I had two elbows, and I considered any ball bouncing off the rim my personal property.

Entrepreneurship is kind of like a scrappy basketball game. Most people who play aren’t superstars. They just know how to survive long enough to figure it out. 

I’ve always had an affinity for those kinds of people. My dad, for example, took over my grandfather’s deli on the fashionable upper East Side of Manhattan in the 1950s and worked it seven days a week to turn it into the premier fancy food shop and catering service of the 1950s-1970s. He, along with my brother, then morphed it into the #2 party equipment rental company in NYC, eventually selling to private equity in the early 2000s. It was an “overnight” success story that took 40 years.

Because of growing up in a roll-your-sleeves-up business, I gravitate toward entrepreneurial companies. Since 2018, I have been an EOS implementer - which may mean nothing to you right now. But the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) is a proven set of timeless tools and principles that helps business owners get what they want from their businesses. Companies that benefit from EOS generally have these things in common:

- Privately-held
- 10-250 employees
- Have the right product in the right market
- Want to grow
- Not satisfied with the status quo
- Frustrated by one or more aspects of their business (sales, profit, people, process, shared vision, accountability, data-based decision-making, for example)

I offer 90 minutes of my time to explain the tools of EOS to entrepreneurial leadership teams that fit these criteria.
