Bumpers for the Business: How EOS Gives Successors Clarity
What happens when successors finally have a system that helps them lead with clarity instead of chaos?
Andrea sits down with Adam Hill and Jacqueline Jensen to explore how EOS (the
Entrepreneurial Operating System) changed their leadership—and their companies.
You’ll hear their origin stories in family business, what EOS made possible, and their favorite
tools (V/TO, Issues Solving Track, Scorecard). Together they sketch a people-first picture of EOS: structure that actually liberates successors to lead with confidence, communicate honestly, and build healthy teams.
What You’ll Hear in This Episode:
- Adam’s turnaround story: from near insolvency to aligned, profitable growth on EOS.
- Jacqueline’s shift from 80-hour weeks to a thriving, people-first culture through self-implementation.
- Why structure → freedom: EOS as bumpers that keep vision and values on track.
- Favorite tools that changed their leadership (V/TO, IDS/Issues Solving Track, Scorecard).
- How EOS separates relationships from roles so families can lead—and love—better.
