Hi, Luis: I’m not sure what you mean by “going concerns change that order.”
Follow the process: I’ve observed that when the process isn’t followed, teams either get frustrated and quit. Or are disappointed because they are not achieving the desired impact.
Slow is smooth, smooth is fast: It takes about the same amount of time to implement EOS right the first time as it does to re-order the sequence and start over. Implementing the systems is purposefully spaced learning. There’s ample time to course correct on your path to mastery.
Traction First/Vision Second: By learning how to skillfully gain traction and make progress on goals, a team’s confidence is built up. Finally, they buy in to an agreed-upon, shared vision. The fly-wheel starts spinning. The team is unstoppable. The motto becomes: “plan the work and work the plan.”
I invite you to re-examine (IDS) the root cause of why you believe the sequencing must be re-ordered. I hope this leads you to a course correction that allows you to use EOS to get what you want from your business. Vision without Traction Is Hallucination...Wishing you success.
PS - Yes, I've implemented EOS for brand new businesses. Start-ups with no revenue. Two-person leadership teams. The process did not fail us!
