Scale Your Firm, No MBA Required, with Megan Piper

Megan Piper says that her job coaching entrepreneurs “is to help them succeed and then to get out of the way.” To do this, she teaches a model called EOS, or “entrepreneurial operating system.” And while EOS is “industry agnostic,” Megan explains to hosts Ben Gideon and Jeff Wright that law firms can use it to clarify their vision, drive accountability, and scale effectively. But they have to buy into core principles, including healthy partner communication and a clear organizational structure. Tune in as she describes the “beautiful simplicity” of EOS. “We can teach people in just a couple of hours some really basic principles that you do not need an MBA to understand,” she says.
