Traction

Get a Grip on Your Business

Book • 2012

In Traction, Gino Wickman provides a systematic approach to achieving business success through the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS).

The book focuses on six key components: Vision, People, Data, Issues, Process, and Traction.

It helps business leaders clarify their vision, align their leadership team, solve common business problems, and foster healthy communication and discipline within the organization.

The EOS system is designed to help businesses overcome frustrations such as lack of control, people issues, insufficient profit, hitting the ceiling, and feeling stuck.

The book offers practical tools, real-world examples, and actionable strategies to drive sustainable growth and improve business operations.
