Get a Grip on Your Business

We believe in the power of entrepreneurship to change people’s lives, and we believe that our tools have the power to change entrepreneurs’ lives.

EOS®, the Entrepreneurial Operating System®, is a set of simple concepts and practical tools that has helped thousands of entrepreneurs around the world get what they want from their businesses and create a positive impact on the people and societies around them.

Prior to his work as an EOS Implementer, Scott Goodrich spent over twenty years leading and scaling operations for both public and privately held companies in the financial services and insurance industries.

Scott is also a local business owner. He and his wife opened a Bishops Cuts/Color franchise in Tempe in 2017.

Their shop has doubled its sales in each of the last two years and consistently ranks in the top 5 of all locations in the network.

Scott is excited to share his experiences as both an executive and an entrepreneur with his clients and help them to get what they want from their businesses.

Growing revenues from $350k to over $10m in 7 years, she experienced all the joys and sufferings of entrepreneurial leadership.

Fred Jentgen’s entrepreneur journey started as a sales & marketing leader for a technology company. After several business misfires, he eventually built a strong team and competitive product, and was able to deliver significant, sustained revenue growth for over 15 years.

One of his favorite roles was partnering with entrepreneurs to grow their businesses together. Despite achieving their business goals, many were left feeling empty with struggles in their internal business operations, their families, and with their health. That broke his heart and fueled his purpose!

In 2017, Fred began to feel empty, and the business that he loved was no longer fulfilling. He decided to take the leap and focus full-time on his passion: helping leaders to be their best in business and life thru EOS® Implementation.

THINK FIT-GET FIT-STAY FIT Kyle McInstosh with MAC6 and Brian Mohr with Conscious Capitalism Arizona

Our first show is in the books for “Think Fit, Get Fit, Stay Fit”, hosted by Scott Marsh, sponsored by Mind and Body Strengthening, and his guests Kyle McIntosh with MAC6 and Brian Mohr from the AZ Chapter Conscious Capitalism.

We found out great background information on how each of them came to be in their current positions and how wellness plays an important role in all they do. Discussing their thoughts and experiences with corporate wellness programs, and the benefits to their employees, including the companies ROI. We shared the concern for obesity, including childhood obesity and the lack of physical education/activity today in schools.

Lastly we discussed how health and wellness fall under the four Conscious Capitalism tenets, 1) Higher Purpose 2) Stakeholder Orientation 3) Conscious Leadership 4) Conscious Culture.

This segment of “Think Fit, Get Fit, Stay Fit” is for anyone interested in learning more about Conscious Capitalism and what it means, what MAC6 to offer, especially in the health and fitness areas. MAC6 has a gym that anyone working in their work-space has access to with an on site Personal Trainer.

One of the main key points in a company wellness program, is that its success starts with its leaders at the top. If a company is considering incorporating a wellness program and is looking for an example, MAC6 has done a wonderful job of making it part of their culture.

With a background in marketing, in various for profit and not for profit companies, Kyle McIntosh wondered, “How can I pair the passion and commitment to community progress of a non-profit with the sustainability and reach of a for profit company?” From this question and perspective a mission evolved to tear down the false distinction between the two sectors and to promote companies with Conscious Capitalism® business models through MAC6.

Kyle is the President and Creative Excitant of MAC6. Day to day, his main operational role is on the “spaces” side of the business, focusing on creating thriving communities in the commercial office buildings, the co-working space, and the co-manufacturing space. The other role that he plays is that of EOS implementer, working with clients to bring the Entrepreneurial Operating System, from the book Traction® to their businesses. Additionally, he sits on the boards of Conscious Capitalism Arizona, telling the stories of good businesses in Arizona, and The Tempe Chamber of Commerce, sustaining Tempe’s quality of life and keeping our community and economy vibrant.

Kyle loves Arizona and wants to see us all collectively find great success based on the awesome things that are happening here every day.

In the summer of 2018, Brian doubled down on his commitment to leveraging business as a powerful force for good and joined the Arizona Chapter of Conscious Capitalism as its first President. Together with Scott McIntosh, Founder & Chairman of the Arizona Chapter of Conscious Capitalism, Brian is focused on helping the Arizona business community practice capitalism with both a long-term view and a stakeholder-centric orientation; a model of business that creates prosperity for all.
