About Me

web 800x800 0866 768x768
Implementer Category: CertifiedImplementer Tags: minneapolis

I’m on a quest to help family business owners get what they want from their business.

Before helping family businesses implement EOS, I served as the director of the nationally recognized Family Business Center at the University of Saint Thomas in Minnesota and have been a coach for over 20 years. Most of my professional career (starting as a young kid in my own family business) has been working for family-owned companies.

While my name is a sentence – Sara B. Stern – I’m far from stern. I keep my clients focused on implementing EOS purely – I’m also a fan of dad jokes. The dumber the better.

If you want to keep doing things just as you have been…I’m not for you.

If you want to keep all family members employed…even if they are causing issues in the business….I’m not for you.

If you want a powerful tool that will help you run a great business and have a great family….I am for you.
