Speaker: Rod Smith
It’s great when you have role clarity and know how to do your job well, but what do you do when you or your employee doesn’t have time to do satisfactory work? With a few simple tools and some insight, anyone can get unstuck and articulate a plan back toward healthy.
REF: EOS’s Delegate and Elevate Tool; Ken Blanchard’s Situational Leadership Model (SLII)
Rod is intensely passionate about helping leaders and entrepreneurs build great businesses for a greater purpose.
He started working at a very early age in a family business developing both his grit and work ethic, serving him well through West Point and playing football as a student-athlete. After serving in the US Army, Rod experienced Corporate America and business through several industries and a variety of leadership/ entrepreneurial roles. It cultivated a love and interest for small-to-mid-sized organizations.
Over the last 20 years, Rod has led and owned a number of companies that included both gratifying and humbling experiences. It was during a season of trying to install business architecture in a growing mid-sized company that he struggled the most and found it difficult to find a comprehensive and cohesive approach that worked. Admittedly, he (and the organization) was dying a death by a thousand cuts.
Out of necessity, Rod searched for business system solutions and came across the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS). It immediately resonated with him, ultimately running his next two companies on EOS, turning roadblock challenges into successes. In his first company, it prepared the way for a much higher valuation, succession planning, and profitable sale.
As a business and executive coach and EOS Implementer, Rod is excited to come alongside entrepreneurs and leaders who want to get the most out of their businesses and life.
