Company Operating Systems - CoS it's Thanksgiving - Matt Shaffer
Manage episode 451956289 series 3610754
In the latest episode of Polaris, Matt Shaffer delves into the concept of Company Operating Systems (CoS), exploring its framework, key components, and the importance of documentation and communication in achieving business goals. We discuss the distinction between strategic and operational focuses, the difference between strategy and planning, and share real-world applications of CoS in various organizations. The conversation also touches on the role of software in implementing CoS, best practices for successful implementation, and future trends in organizational design and strategy.
Takeaways· A Company Operating System is a framework that helps maintain focus on business priorities.
· The four key components of a CoS are business foundations, strategy, annual plans, and focus rhythm.
· Goals are just one small piece of a larger operating system.
· Documentation is crucial for intentionality in achieving business objectives.
· Strategy involves long-term choices, while planning is about execution.
· Leading practices for implementation include (1) educate on CoS components; (2) understand the difference between strategy and planning; and (3) don't over-commit on quarterly rocks your first time.
How to get going = candid discussions with leaders, then workshops.

Things we discussed on the show: General· You can discover more about Polaris Hall at the US Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs at Polaris Hall • United States Air Force Academy
· Matt has additional CoS resources hosted at www.salient7.com
· The “Think System” of Professor Harold Hill in The Music Man. [Spoiler: it doesn’t really work – bands have to actually, umm, practice.]
· The story behind the origin of “Big Rocks”, popularized by Stephen Covey in his work The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. Summary – big rocks have to be tackled first.
