90 x EOS Newsletter

— January 12th, 2026 —

Welcome to the First Issue

We debated for years whether the world needed another newsletter from a company like ours. What do we have to say that is impactful and relevant for the days at hand? It turns out a lot.

With more than 18,000 teams running on EOS® powered by Ninety, we sit at a vantage point that gives us access to real stories, real breakthroughs, and real moments of clarity from leaders and teams like yours. Those moments deserve to be shared as practical insight from the front lines.

That is why this newsletter exists.

We’ll bring you the ideas, patterns, and learnings from the incredible organizations and coaches we’re fortunate to partner with. We’re also launching this alongside our new podcast Impact Moments.

Each issue will include helpful blogs, product updates, and a look at what we’re building, what we’re learning, and what we believe helps teams win the week, to win the quarter, to win the year.

Have a story to share? Reply and tell us. We know there are a hundred newsletters in your inbox. We’re here to make this the one worth opening.

Impact Moments
Why Impact Moments Matter

An impact moment is when a leadership team gains shared clarity around the real issue, aligns on the truth, and commits to the right next action. These moments are rare, but when they happen, they change how a team thinks, decides, and executes.

My cohost Christine Watts, Head of Services at Ninety, and I open the podcast series. I’m Kris Snyder,  Ninety’s CRO and Professional EOS Implementer®. Together, we unpack why these breakthrough clarity moments matter for teams running on EOS®.

Key takeaways:

  • Why impact moments matter
  • How breakthrough clarity matters even when it’s rare
  • What to expect in the new podcast series

Elevation Points

You don't need more time. You need more focus.

Annual Planning Meetings Kinda Suck

Walking into your Annual Planning Session with clarity sets the tone for everything that follows. Without real preparation, teams spend the first stretch revisiting old conversations and issues instead of deciding what needs to happen next. 

This is the meeting that shapes the direction of your business for the next 12 months, and it’s important to feel focused and ready when you sit down. Simple preparation, like taking a Clarity Break™ or reviewing your Vision/Traction Organizer® (V/TO®), puts you in the right mindset and makes the time you spend with the rest of your leadership team far more productive.
