What Is the Meeting Pulse?
The EOS Meeting Pulse is a consistent schedule of Annual, Quarterly, and Weekly meetings that keeps your team aligned and connected throughout the year.
Why Use the Meeting Pulse?
By meeting at the right intervals with a consistent structure, you create a regular pulse that keeps everyone focused and accountable. Without a consistent meeting cadence, communication can break down, Issues can linger, and people can lose focus on what matters most.
A regular Meeting Pulse also shortens the time between commitments and accountability, helping reduce procrastination and keeping the circles connected.
The Meeting Pulse helps you:
- Increase Traction and accountability
- Improve communication and team health
- Keep priorities and expectations clear
- Solve Issues consistently
- Keep your team connected as the business grows
What Meetings Make Up the EOS Meeting Pulse?
The EOS Meeting Pulse includes Annual, Quarterly, and Weekly meetings. Each serves a different purpose while keeping your team aligned throughout the year.
Annual Meeting
Two days
Step back from the day-to-day to focus on your company Vision and 1-Year Plan.
Quarterly Meeting
One day
Review your V/TO and the previous quarterโs Rocks, establish the next quarterโs Rocks, and resolve key Issues.
Weekly Meeting
90 minutes
Use your weekly Level 10 Meeting to keep Measurables and Rocks on track, stay aware of employee and customer Issues, and solve Issues.
Extend the Weekly Pulse Through Your Company
Once your leadership team has mastered its weekly Meeting Pulse, roll it out through the organization one level at a time. Departmental Level 10 Meetings are typically 30 to 60 minutes and use the same basic structure, with at least half the meeting focused on solving Issues.
What Makes a Strong Meeting Pulse?
A strong Meeting Pulse depends on consistency.
For your weekly Level 10 Meeting, follow five disciplines:
- Same day
- Same time
- Same agenda
- Starts on time
- Ends on time
These disciplines create a dependable routine, improve efficiency, and help keep your team connected. Once the meetings are on the calendar, protect the cadence and keep the discipline consistent.
How Does the Meeting Pulse Create a 90-Day World?
EOS operates in a 90-Day World because people naturally lose focus and get off track over time.
Quarterly Meetings give your leadership team a regular opportunity to step back, refocus, and set the next quarterโs Rocks. Weekly Level 10 Meetings keep that focus alive between Quarterlies by creating consistent accountability and Issue-solving.
Together, the Quarterly and Weekly Meeting Pulse helps your team stay connected to the Vision while executing in shorter, more focused intervals.
