Ep 279: Using EOS to Build a Stronger Audit Function w/ Chris Hallberg (GoExpand

This week, our guest is Chris Hallberg, CEO and founder of Business Sergeant and president and founder of GoExpand, where he helps organizations implement EOS, the Entrepreneurial Operating System.

Chris joins the show to share how EOS can help teams build more clarity, accountability, and traction. He breaks down the six key components of the framework and explains why so many organizations struggle with alignment and execution.

We also talk about three EOS concepts that feel especially relevant for internal audit: vision, issues, and traction. Chris shares practical ways teams can create a clearer vision, solve the real root of problems, and build stronger follow-through through priorities and meeting rhythms.
