The June issue is chockfull of key and timely content, including on page 56, a member panel discussion on the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS®), which has helped many IMARK members and their leadership teams address key aspects of their business by getting better at three things:

  1. Vision: Ensure that everyone in your company is 100% on the same page about where your company is going and how you plan to get there.
  2. Traction: Instill focus, discipline and accountability through the company so everyone executes that vision daily.
  3. Healthy: Help your team leaders become a more cohesive, functional, healthy leadership team.

On page 10, Navigating Cybersecurity in the Plumbing Industry provides a guide on proactive steps IMARK members can take to reduce cyber threats and points to signs of trouble to recognize a potential breach. In addition, information on Cyber Insurance is provided along with a list of additional resources available to assist your efforts to mitigate cyber threats.
