Are you worried your business won’t make it to the top?

You embarked on your journey not to get mired in the weeds, but to reach the summit of your vision.

Unfortunately, your success has created new levels of complexity and you’re left trying to solve issues for others, revising the roadmap daily and frustrated you don’t have the right team on your side.

This can leave you feeling powerless, defeated and slipping back down the mountain rather than making a bid for the summit.

Running a successful business shouldn’t be so challenging.

“After attempting to self-implement EOS at my company, I turned to Rick for assistance.  He’s an excellent facilitator and teacher.  His ability to extract key information from the team has been critical to our strategic plan.  We are extremely pleased with the results achieved  and having Rick’s trusted guidance on the journey.”

Megan L Decker, President – MegaRentals, Inc.

“We began our journey with Rick  three years ago with only a concept of our organizational transformation.  Rick stepped in and empowered us with a structure and tools to strengthen our leadership team and help us achieve our vision.  We continue to improve our effectiveness and address both strategic and day-to-day issues by embracing concepts Rick has exposed us to and encouraged us to utilize.“

David Gazzo, General Manager – Felss Rotaform LLC

“Early on, Penrod had great success in growth in recognition, being named to the Inc 5000 list 3 years in a row. However, we were suffering from not having a true vision and how to get it there. We decided we needed a partner to help facilitate and implement EOS in our company.  Rick has been instrumental to our roll out , which in 18 months has led to our most profitable year!”

Chris Widmayer, CEO – Penrod

“Our experience with Rick has been every bit worth the investment. We have collectively come together as a leadership team, generated alignment and executed on our strategic approach. Rick is a well-groomed and disciplined facilitator, knowing exactly when to let our team challenge each other and when to shut it down and simply move forward. “

Ty Weinhold, COO – Viking-Masek Global Packaging Technologies

“After attempting to self-facilitate, we found we get more done having a trained  facilitator. Rick keeps us on track to make sure we are getting to our rocks and issues. He provides considerable insight to what we need to run a world class business. His real world experience and knowledge provides us with more direction than we would have on our own.”

Gary Swick, President – SWICKtech

“We started seeing Rick in 2016, in an effort to implement the EOS within our organization. We needed direction and a solid strategic tool to help build our employees and focus our organization on what really mattered.  He guided the top managers through the process, explaining the tools and keeping our discussions on task. Our team has grown and adapted processes across our company, thanks to Rick and his coaching methods.”

Sonia Fremoth, Controller – Felss Rotaform LLC

“Rick has done a great job assisting Plasti-coil/Tri-tec in implementing EOS. We are new to EOS and Rick worked well with our team getting us off to a good start.”
