How Our L10 Meetings Changed Everything
Most businesses say they want better communication and accountability. Few actually build the system to support it. That’s where EOS changed everything for us. Especially the Level 10 (L10) meeting. An L10 is a weekly leadership meeting built to move past the noise and deal with what really matters. Real issues. Real accountability. Real traction.
We Stopped Wasting Time
Before EOS, we had meetings, but they weren’t productive. They rabbit-trailed. They ran long. They solved nothing. If someone dominated the conversation or failed to follow up, it often went unchecked. Important information slipped through the cracks. The team felt it. So did the work.
Now? Every meeting is run as an L10, on a tight 60-minute agenda. Shorter than EOS's full 90, but just as focused. Everyone speaks. Everyone owns their work. We track to-dos, we solve issues, and we walk out with clarity. It’s focused and it delivers.
The Structure That Keeps Us Moving Forward
Every L10 meeting includes:
A quick check-in to keep us human
Scorecard review to spot red flags
Rock updates to track quarterly goals
Headlines to share wins and news
A to-do list review for follow-through
IDS (Identify, Discuss, Solve): the core of the meeting
Wrap up with clarity and alignment
This rhythm forces alignment. It forces focus. It surfaces tension before it festers. And when things go off track, the structure brings us back.
Why It Matters to Clients (and our Team)
Clients don’t see our meetings, but they feel the results. When our L10s run well, our execution is tight. Priorities get met. Issues get solved fast. Clients do not have to chase updates because we are already ahead of them.
For our team, it means less chaos and more confidence. Everyone knows what is expected. Everyone knows where we are going. That clarity turns into momentum, and momentum builds trust.
Want a Company That Actually Communicates?
Strong teams don’t happen by accident. They’re built with intention. Our L10 meetings are one way we stay aligned, own our roles, and deliver at a high level.
If your team is stuck in meeting fatigue or constantly misfiring, maybe it’s time to build a new rhythm. Start with one that works. We did.
