*As reported by the client approximately two years into the EOS journey.

Veritas Injury Lawyers was already successful.

The firm was making money. The business was growing. And Founder and Managing Shareholder Keller Caubarreaux wasn’t convinced they needed EOS® at all.

Why bring in a system when the business was already working?

But underneath the success was a challenge that becomes increasingly important as a firm grows:

The leadership team wasn’t fully aligned.

Two years after beginning the EOS journey with EOS Implementer® Tiffany Ablola, the firm looked very different.

“Working with Tiffany and using the EOS system has been a complete game changer.”

THE CHALLENGE

Success Was Outgrowing the Leadership Team

Veritas Injury Lawyers is a personal injury firm serving clients across Colorado and eastern Utah, with more than 60 years of combined personal injury experience.

Like many successful firms, Veritas wasn’t implementing EOS because the business was failing. It was implementing EOS because growth was creating a new set of leadership challenges.

As the firm expanded, greater alignment was needed at the leadership level. The team needed to get on the same page, work through issues more effectively, and build the organizational discipline to support a larger firm.

Keller was skeptical that a “system” could materially change a business that was already performing.

Two years later, he said he “could not have been more wrong.”

THE EOS JOURNEY

Build the Leadership Team Behind the Growth

Tiffany worked with Keller and his leadership team to implement EOS and create greater alignment around how they operated the firm.

But Tiffany brought something else to the room.

Before becoming an EOS Implementer, Tiffany was an employment attorney. Her work required her to navigate difficult conversations, understand competing perspectives, and recognize what was happening in a room even when nobody was saying it directly.

That experience became particularly valuable with the Veritas leadership team.

Keller describes Tiffany as having a unique ability to understand people beyond their words, recognize what they’re struggling with, develop solutions, and bring the team together.

“The objective wasn’t simply to implement EOS. It was to build a stronger leadership team capable of supporting the company Veritas was becoming.”

On track for most profitable year ever

Over approximately two years of working with Tiffany and implementing EOS, Veritas experienced substantial growth. The team grew from 5 people to 12, plus two remote employees. The firm doubled the square footage of its primary office. It added a satellite office. And Keller reported that Veritas was on track for its most profitable year ever.

The physical and financial growth tells part of the story. The more important transformation was underneath it: a leadership team better equipped to align, confront issues, make decisions, and move forward together.

TIFFANY’S DIFFERENTIATOR

More Than an EOS Implementer

Keller’s experience with Tiffany went beyond having an EOS Implementer facilitate sessions.

He describes her as thoughtful, caring and talented, and says she has gone above and beyond on countless occasions to help the team succeed.

Her ability to read the room and uncover what’s not being said has allowed her to help the leadership team address issues that can otherwise remain beneath the surface.

“She’s become a friend and a mentor in a lot of ways.”

THE TAKEAWAY

Growth Changes What Your Leadership Team Needs

The most important time to build structure isn’t necessarily when a firm is struggling. It’s when growth has made the old way of operating too small.

Veritas didn’t need EOS to rescue a failing business. It used EOS to help a successful business and its leadership team prepare for what came next.
