What Does an Enterprise Outsourcing (EOS) Consultant Bring to the Table?

An EOS Installer is a leader, coach, facilitator, and consultant of EOS in it's purest form, assisting leadership teams of small, growth minded, private, entrepreneurial companies with over 10K employees through the process of EOS mastery from beginning conceptualization to implementation. They are success, wealth-minded entrepreneurs who share core values and passion for EOS implementation, rather than doing bits and pieces job work, and instead want to experience the EOS Life through mastering EOS system integration, rather than creating their own thing or doing only parts of their job. They are role models for the people who hire them, because they themselves choose careers that enable them to make the most of their strengths and use those strengths to create wealth and career success for themselves.

However, these same role models also need the support and participation of business coaches to be able to grow their companies effectively. This is the reality of being an EOS implementer, because not every single business coach can be an expert at EOS installation, especially in terms of a business coach who has never undertaken such a role before. And not every business coach who can't do the role well can become an effective EOS implementer, because not every business coach is an expert at building and executing an EOS strategy and vision. Thus, there needs to be a balance between the relevant knowledge of a business coach who has built successful systems versus the experience of a seasoned and highly functional and skilled EOS implementer who knows how to build robust and highly functional EOS platforms from scratch. This is where an authentic and effective balance between experience and wisdom becomes critical.

So what are the three things that an authentic business coach should know about six key components of an EOS strategy? The three things are vision, traction and strategy. Let's take a look at these three things one by one and talk about how these three things relate to the role of an EOS implementor.

Vision: An effective EOS strategy must first be defined and clearly understood. In other words, the vision of the company needs to be defined, understood and prioritized. This will help guide and direct the development of the strategy, especially the hiring and training of the people who will perform the roles of the EOS consultants. Moreover, the vision of the business needs to be projected over a long-term period and into the future.

Traction: A successful EOS strategy must achieve a series of primary and secondary goals. These goals will be the outcome of the vision that is developed by the EOS strategic planning team. This includes the purpose of the company, the kind of business it is engaged in, the resources that it has (both human and financial), the current market conditions, the competitors, etc. The EOS implementers then need to identify what resources are currently available to them, what resources they will be able to acquire in the future, etc.

The third thing that an EOS strategic planning team must have is traction. Having traction enables the EOS implementers to make the vision and the strategy decisions based on the facts they have uncovered from their research and analysis of their organization. They can do this because they understand and can articulate clearly the benefits that the objectives of the organization will generate in the future. Having traction also allows the EOS implementers to build accountability. Accountability is absolutely necessary if the organization is to develop and achieve its objectives over a period of time.

So what does an EOS consultant bring to the table that other consulting services providers don't have? Well, first off, the EOS implementers have a deep understanding of the corporate mission, vision and strategy. This enables them to create and develop plans to achieve those goals.

Next, the EOS consultant has an in depth understanding of the resources that are presently available to the company. They understand where they are currently at and where they want to go. They can provide a company with strategic planning and program review guidance in both the short term and the long term. Finally, the EOS implementers have a comprehensive understanding of the current market and the competitive landscape. This enables them to make strategic decisions to grow the organization in the most efficient and effective manner possible.
