Traction by Gino Wickman is a transformative guide designed to help business leaders and entrepreneurs gain control of their businesses with a structured, practical approach.

The book delves into the six key components that are crucial for any business to thrive: Vision, People, Data, Issues, Process, and Traction. Wickman meticulously breaks down each component and offers actionable insights to strengthen them, ensuring that decisions are made and effectively implemented.

Furthermore, for those who wish to see the principles of Traction in action, Wickman offers an illustrative, real-world companion book, Get A Grip, which provides detailed case studies and examples of how other companies have successfully implemented EOS.
