EOS (With WASHI)

We recently started running the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) at WASHI, and one of the coolest parts has been the EOS problem-solving framework, IDS:

- Identify the real issue.
- Discuss possible solutions.
- Solve with clear, accountable follow-up.

It’s a simple yet powerful way to turn roadblocks into progress.

While EOS is popular among SMBs, I truly believe larger organizations can really benefit from the IDS approach as well.

What’s been especially exciting to discover is that our own software platform, WASHI, acts as an incredible IDS engine.

When an issue arises, we track it and hold regular meetings to address key challenges. If it’s straightforward, we Identify, Discuss, and Solve on the spot.

For more complex issues, WASHI acts as our IDS thinking assistant, helping us analyze, align, and commit faster than ever.

- Identify: WASHI reframes issues into key questions to drive clarity and alignment.
- Discuss: The platform levels the playing field so every voice is heard.
- Solve: It enables explainable decisions that lead to action and results.

We are in a great team rhythm and it just keeps getting better. We are our own case study example of how WASHI can become the cornerstone of a team’s operation system.

If, like us, you’re running EOS, we’d love to show you how WASHI supercharges IDS, as well other core aspects of EOS.

And if you’re in a larger organization looking for a more structured, inclusive, and efficient way to solve problems and keep everyone on the same page, let’s connect.
