We have been working with Steve to implement the Pinnacle process, which involves understanding our business, how we execute, and then building a specific plan to improve our execution. Not only have we done a better job communicating what our business is about and how we execute on that, but we transformed our interactions as a leadership team. Literally, every dimension of our business has been impacted by our ability to more clearly articulate where we’re going.

Testimonials from our clients
I’ve been working with Steve Preda for almost five years. He’s helped us put in place structures and he’s helped to motivate the team, to stay disciplined and focused and to accomplish everything that we said that we’re going to accomplish. Steve has had a major influence on me and my leadership, and the valuation of the business has quadrupled over the period of time he’s worked with us. in the last year alone, Clear Impact achieved 26% monthly recurring revenue growth, far exceeding our expectations. This year, we’re going to at least double that.
-Adam Luecking
Founder and CEO, Clear Impact
I needed a strong foundation with goal setting, and holding people accountable. My staff love setting their goals, they feel like they’re contributing, and it gets all of us aligned for the purpose of growing the practice, which I couldn’t have done by myself. Almost anybody who thinks that they don’t have a strong foundation for growth don’t have playbooks in place. If you feel like you’re constantly re-explaining things hire Steve in order to put systems in place so that you can just continue to grow and scale without having to worry about it.
-Dr. Nima Shemirani
CEO, Eos Rejuvenation

Steve is not just a process facilitator; his knowledge of business was very helpful to us. Any company that’s at an inflection point would benefit from Summit OS.

As a business coach for 18 years, I’m constantly reading business books to find the best new ideas for my clients. Most are built around one idea, easily speed-read. Some need to be read thoughtfully, with many ideas to use. A rare few deserve to be studied…dog eared pages, highlighted, written in the margins, re-read annually. “Pinnacle: 5 Principles…” is such a book. This is the best business operating system book for entrepreneurial leadership teams who have moved beyond the prepackaged, cookie-cutter system others offer.
Carol Steinberg

[The authors] have done a masterful job of consolidating the "best of the best" business thought leader philosophies and models and incorporated into tools that provide a concise and actionable journey to the top. Without fluff and dull, time-consuming exercises, they cut to the chase and give the reader clear direction, purpose and navigation that works for each company embarking on their journey. I am excited to introduce my clients to the Five Principles and Fifteen Practices detailed in the book.

Pinnacle takes the concept of a business operating system to the next level. If you gained insights from books such as The eMyth, Scaling Up, The Great Game of Business, or Traction, Pinnacle is a must read. It will take you deeper and farther than all of these books combined.
If you are an owner or leader of a privately held business that is looking to grow, increase your profit or improve your business, buy this book, you are guaranteed to come away with numerous ideas that you can implement in your business tomorrow.

The Pinnacle Book breaks down and prioritizes actionable steps for those who are always pushing for the next level. After reading the book I feel like I now have a better path to driving growth while improving communication and alignment throughout the organization. This book helped simplify a great deal of the complexity I deal with daily and I have now passed it onto my executive team. I highly recommend this book if you own or run a company and are striving for sustainable growth.

I keep a stack of these on my desk to send friends and colleagues. It has such useful tools for working ON a business; rather than IN a business. Easy to read and apply right away!

Preda is a master at the OS and brings it to life in this fable. I'm not usually a fan of fable biz books but this one is the exception. I really think it is powerfully written.
Noah

The book is written in a narrative format that gives a great introduction to the five concepts of the Pinnacle business growth system (People, Perform, Playbooks, Purpose).
For company owners and managers who are interested in creating a lean, scalable, profitable, sustainable business, this book is a great first step!

Steve Preda builds upon his prior book, Pinnacle: The Five Principles to take your Business to the Top of the Mountain, by adding a business fable of a Dermatology practice trying to scale. Using his real world experience, he takes the reader through the challenges businesses face and how a guide and his operating system, Summit OS, can straighten the path for the Team.
Geared toward the entrepreneur, this book is a fast but a very informative read for CEOs and their leadership teams who want to learn what a company’s scaling Journey firsthand using the Summit OS System. In an interesting twist, the company seeks outside capital and the reader can see how the operating system helps a company become more attractive to third party investors.

In this fable, Steve delivers the content of Summit OS in a very practical and down to earth manner. This approach makes it easy to visualize the application of the principles and practices of Summit OS to real life situations. It gets the point across and one can easily extrapolate the experiences of these fictional characters into one’s own business.

Business owners ride a roller coaster every day. One minute, the trusted team works together like clockwork; profits are up, and management congratulates itself for its brilliant performance. The next minute, the company’s survival is at stake because of one unexpected event. If you think it can’t happen to your business, read this business fable and learn just how important it is to have a plan and how an outsider’s objective view can make all the difference. I highly recommend this book.

Steve Preda has written (and drawn) a book that takes what can be overwhelming concepts and breaks them down into six executable steps. The illustrations make you feel that you are in the room as Steve is at the white board. Plus, the use of white space gives the reader a break, allowing you to absorb the material. This book strikes a good balance of theory and implementation, providing support for the recommendations made.

Strategy Operating System® (Strategy OS) is a groundbreaking concept that has the potential to revolutionize the way businesses approach strategy creation. Steve Preda has spent years researching and studying the most important strategy books of the past half-century and has distilled the essential ideas into six consecutive steps that are easy to understand and implement. By providing clear, actionable steps and real-world examples, the author has created a system that is both accessible and effective.
I highly recommend Strategy OS to any ambitious entrepreneur or CEO looking to take their business to the next level.

This book is one of the best books I have gotten on the subject of Strategy. In fact, getting the trio of books from Steve's has been one of the best investments in building a business I have made. One thing you will appreciate about Steve is that his style of writing ensures that you grasp concepts easily, and you can take them and immediately implement them. What I particularly liked about this one was that Steve takes you by the hand and walks you through all the foundational strategy pillars you need to build a business that will scale. I was able to identify the mistakes I made initially and devise a plan to rectify them. You can't go wrong with this one.

I love the anecdotes from the real world that help illustrate the points. Unlike most strategy books, Strategy OS is very readable and interesting - not just a book of recipes and prescriptions. This is a must-read for any SMB owner or executive.
Peter

Steve Preda provides a logical framework around the hard to pin down strategy discussion. Starting with the basics of positioning and differentiation, the Strategy OS tools take a company through a six-step process to build a unique and defensible position in the market to drive profitable growth. Simple in design and logically organized, Strategy OS is for the company that has mastered a basic operating system and is ready to break out to a whole next level of growth.
Arvin

A typically abstract subject to many, is presented as a systematic and coherent system that any business can implement. I highly recommend reading this book to business owners or executives who are struggling to define and put in place a business strategy that targets their goals and that is clear to their team.
