Traction: Get a Grip on Your Business - Paperback

Traction by Gino Wickman is the book behind EOS, the Entrepreneurial Operating System owners use to put structure into how a company runs.

It splits a business into six components and gives each one practical tools. If people keep recommending it to you, this is the book they mean.

What owners say

It is not a gripping read, and reviewers say as much. They describe an owner's manual: few ideas that feel brand new, but steps concrete enough to apply, and a structure you can actually run on.

For getting a grip on your business through an example instead of a manual, Get A Grip, its companion volume, walks through a real-world case.
