Why Self-Implementing EOS Nearly Broke His Business - Jay Tankersley (EP. 012)
Jay Tankersley spent 18 months trying to self-implement EOS before admitting it wasn't working. Six months with a professional implementer outpaced everything he had done on his own, and the experience launched a decade as an EOS implementer and the founder of Meritage, a private investment fund built specifically for companies running on EOS. In this conversation with Christine Watts and Kris Snyder, Jay recounts the moment early in his implementer career when he asked a leadership team whether anyone trusted a specific colleague sitting in the room. The 30-second silence that followed changed that company's trajectory and, years later, set up the largest acquisition of their career. Jay also walks through the recognition moment that led him to build one of the first EOS-focused investment funds, and reflects on the mistakes that come from trying to lead as a democracy instead of making the call.
