An entrepreneur since the age of 21, Gino has had an obsession for learning that makes businesses and entrepreneurs thrive. At age 25, he took over the family business, which was deeply in debt and in need of help. After turning the company around and running it for 7 years, he and his partners successfully sold the company. Gino then set out to help entrepreneurs and leaders get what they want from businesses. Based on his years of real world experience, he created the Entrepreneurial Operating System, EOS, a practical method for helping companies achieve greatness. He has personally delivered more than 1900 full day sessions for more than 100 companies, helping them implement EOS. He is also the author of the award-winning best selling book, Traction: Get a Grip on Your Business, as well as Get a Grip, Rocket Fuel, How to Be a Great Boss, and What the Heck Is EOS?. Gino is the founder of EOS Worldwide, an organization that helps tens of thousands of businesses implement EOS with the aid of an international team of over 350 professional and certified EOS implementers and online support. There are more than 76,000 companies using the EOS tools worldwide. Gino is devoting time and energy toward helping entrepreneurs in the making getting a huge jumpstart on taking their entrepreneurial leap, which is why he created Entrepreneurial Leap. The mission of Entrepreneurial Leap is to find all of the entrepreneurs in the making at any age, wherever they are, to help them realize their purpose and live the life they were born to live.

New conversations arrive every Monday, providing a regular dose of practical wisdom earned the hard way.
