About
As a Certified EOS Implementer®, I help entrepreneurial leadership teams get Vision, Traction®, and Healthy cohesion by mastering the Six Key Components™ of the Entrepreneurial Operating System® (EOS®).
What sets me apart isn’t just my EOS expertise — it’s the 35+ years I spent in the hospitality and food service industry, where results are real, people matter, and every day tests your leadership. I’ve led teams through chaos, built high-performing cultures, and turned struggling operations into thriving businesses. That real-world experience shapes how I teach, facilitate, and coach today: practical, direct, and rooted in reality.
When we work together, you get more than a process — you get a partner who’s been in your shoes. I know what it’s like to manage growth, lead through conflict, and rebuild trust. My focus is on helping your team:
Clarify your Vision so everyone rows in the same direction
Strengthen your People by getting the right folks in the right seats
Simplify your Data so decisions are made with facts, not feelings
Solve Issues at the root to build trust and momentum
Streamline Processes that drive consistency and scale
Gain Traction® through discipline, accountability, and measurable results
My mission is simple: to help leadership teams get what they truly want from their business by running it on EOS® — and to make that journey both meaningful and sustainable.
If you’re ready to bring clarity, accountability, and health to your organization, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

Testimonials
Tim is talented in explaining the goals & objectives of EOS with the unique ability to facilitate ideas and decisions from our team with a refreshing level of honesty and professionalism.
Tim's style is so comfortable, approaching us as partners. The age of our leadership team spans 4 decades; we'd already been pleased with our collaboration but Tim is guiding us to a whole new level.
We tried to “self implement” for a bit but thankfully came to our senses engaged with Tim. He's provided needed structure & helped us to reap much more benefit from EOS than we would have on our own.
Tim has kept us focused & positive, always drawing out our strengths while calling forth our relentless honesty, which has drawn out the highest and best version of our organization.
