Summit OS: A Fable: One Business's Journey to the Top of the Mountain
Summit A Fable is a practical business parable for growth-minded owners and CEOs of 15–100 employee privately held companies who want to scale without losing control, profitability, or peace of mind.
Through a compelling story, the book introduces the Summit OS business operating system, a proven framework that helps leadership teams align on strategy, execute effectively, and build lasting competitive advantage. At the center is a struggling company facing stalled growth, fractured accountability, and frustrated leaders. Readers follow the CEO and team as they clarify direction, regain focus, and empower their people to deliver results.
Unlike a textbook or checklist, this business fable shows how real-world leaders overcome execution breakdowns, strategy gaps, and the challenge of building a truly self-managing company. The story is relatable, easy to read, and immediately applicable.
Entrepreneurs, founders, and CEOs preparing for their next stage of growth, improved profitability, or eventual exit will find both inspiration and a roadmap. Whether you lead a professional services firm, a tech-enabled enterprise, or a distribution business, you’ll learn tools that drive accountability, team empowerment, and sustainable growth.
If you’ve enjoyed The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, The Advantage, or Traction, this book extends that tradition—offering a unique system built for mid-size too complex for small-business playbooks but too lean for corporate bureaucracy.
Summit A Fable is your field guide to building a profitable, sustainable, self-managing, and more valuable company.
