Discover actionable frameworks to align your team, prioritise efforts, and drive sustainable business momentum.
Most teams grind for growth, but the best ones systemise it. In this step, you’ll see why a structured approach always beats random tactics. You’ll follow Random Rick, Specialist Steve, and Solid Sarah to understand how a system-driven growth approach can double revenue without doubling workload.
Traction introduces the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), a comprehensive framework designed to help business leaders regain control, eliminate chaos, and build a scalable organisation. It tackles five common frustrations faced by entrepreneurs: lack of control, people issues, profitability struggles, hitting growth ceilings, and failure of past solutions. Wickman argues that by focusing on six key business components, leaders can create a self-sustaining organisation that operates smoothly and grows systematically.
Traction is not a theoretical guide but a practical toolkit for building a well-oiled, growth-oriented organisation. By implementing the EOS framework, leaders can achieve clarity, solve persistent issues, and develop the discipline required to grow their businesses sustainably. It’s a call to simplify, execute, and lead with focus.
