Living Intentionally… Not Easy for an Individual But it is Even Harder for a Business

What you need to do is easy; it is the “living it” that is the hard part. One of the main ways businesses are living intentionally is by knowing that their Core Values are a vital part of how the company operates. This means the values are not just something on their conference room wall, but they are lived every day. Values that are lived every day show up in how a company hires, who a company fires, who is rewarded or recognized, how expectations are set, and how the team interacts with each other and their customers and vendors.

Company mission statements result in a more successful organization, according to EOS Worldwide®. The creators of the Entrepreneurial Operating System® (EOS®), recently reported that companies who have well-developed mission statements that accurately describe the purpose of the business tend to be more successful and stay in business longer than those who don’t. According to Gino Wickman, EOS Founder, “Defining a company mission statement, or as we call it, a Core Focus™, isn’t always an easy process, but it’s an extremely valuable exercise that helps business owners fully clarify their purpose for the business and gives everyone a central purpose to focus on. A great mission statement also makes it easy for other organizations to gain insight into what you do.”

EOS Worldwide®, creators of the Entrepreneurial Operating System® (EOS®), recently announced the launch of new business owner webinars on the company’s website. “Multiply Your Effectiveness with the Right Tools”, the latest business owner webinar from EOS Worldwide, is being held online February 29th, March 6th and March 23rd.

A friend of mine who ministers to very poor communities in Mexico recently wrote, “Passion without organization produces frivolous fluff but organization without passion leads to lifeless and purposeless tedium.”

It’s easy for many of us to see an issue as a bad thing – something to be avoided. After all, issues usually lead to some measure of discomfort, so why shouldn’t we avoid them?
