SUMMARY:EOS Workshop: Get a Grip on Your Business
DESCRIPTION:Register Here: https://www.craigceccanti.com/eos-workshop/ Are you running your business\, or is it running you? This free\, hands-on workshop for owners of growing companies is a three-hour working session built around EOS\, the Entrepreneurial Operating System\, which more than 30\,000 companies worldwide use. You’ll apply one tool from each of EOS’s Six Key Components (Vision\, People\, Data\, Issues\, Process and Traction) to your own business\, right in the room. You’ll leave with a first draft of your company’s plan and a clear list of what to do in the next seven days. A workbook covering every tool is provided\, so bring a pen and honest answers about your business. The workshop is led by Craig Ceccanti\, a Professional EOS Implementer and adjunct professor at Rice. He grew Pinot’s Palette from one Houston studio to more than 150 locations and has held both the Visionary and Integrator seats. Who it’s for: Owners and leaders (CEO\, COO\, CFO\, President) of for-profit companies with roughly 10 to 250 people. You should already know what you sell\, with the hard part now being people\, priorities\, and growth. It’s probably not the right fit if you’re still validating an idea or are a team of one or two. Bring your leadership partner: The best version of this morning is a Visionary and Integrator at the same table. Up to 2 people per company can attend\, and each submits a separate application. How to join: Apply (about three minutes)\, have a quick call with Craig\, then get your confirmation. Applications are reviewed as they come in. Apply by November 6 for the best shot at a seat. Friday\, November 20\, 9:00 AM to noon Seats are limited and an application is required.

SUMMARY:Mapping Houston’s Innovation Ecosystem
DESCRIPTION:Facilitated by Wade Pinder\, Ion’s Mentor in Residence Houston’s startup and innovation ecosystem is as vast and dynamic as the city itself\, full of opportunities\, resources\, and talent. Yet\, navigating it can be challenging—especially for those unfamiliar with its many parts. Whether you’re an entrepreneur\, investor\, educator\, student\, community leader or curious professional\, this session will offer valuable insights into how Houston’s innovation ecosystem works and how you can find your place within it. Discover the Houston Ecosystem’s Flow Facilitated by Wade Pinder\, the Ion’s Mentor in Residence\, this session will help participants map out the journey needed to take an idea from concept to a mature company. Wade brings years of experience in product management\, community building\, and mentoring entrepreneurs to the table\, offering a thoughtful and informed perspective to guide this exploration. The heart of the session lies in exploring a dynamic mind map that Wade has created and continues to refine—an ever-evolving\, community-driven tool that grows alongside Houston’s innovation ecosystem. Attendees will not only learn about the ecosystem’s flow but also have the opportunity to contribute to it by identifying gaps\, sharing knowledge\, and adding their insights. This session will center on the stages of a company’s growth journey\, exploring the essential elements that drive it forward. Participants will examine the role of financial capital\, from early fundraising efforts to securing the resources needed for scaling\, and how these milestones align with a company’s progression. The discussion will also delve into the human element of growing a business\, highlighting the evolving talent and expertise required to navigate the entrepreneurial journey. Additionally\, we’ll explore the importance of “social capital”—the networks\, support systems\, and relationships that play a critical role in moving ideas to market and sustaining long-term growth.
