Shiny Sam

Every firm has one.

Sam bursts into Monday’s leadership meeting with a sparkle in his eye, he has just come back from a conference the week before:

👉 “We need a new case management system!”

👉 “Let’s launch a podcast this month!”

👉 “AI is the future — let’s get ahead of it!”

The team nods politely, writes it down, and… quietly prays it will blow over.

By Friday? That “big idea” has been replaced with three more.

The result? Half-finished projects, scattered priorities, and a frustrated team trying to keep up with Sam’s brain.

Here’s the thing: Shiny Sam isn’t the problem.

His energy and ideas are fuel for growth.

The real issue? No system to channel him.

That’s where a Fractional Integrator for firms running on EOS can come in:

✔️ Vet the ideas

✔️ Park them in the Issues List

✔️ Prioritize what actually moves the needle

So Sam keeps shining ✨ … but without leaving chaos in his wake.
