Operational Excellence: "Mise En Place"

30|90 Marketing Presents Operational Excellence: Mise En Place for EOS

Together, Rachel Ledet and Christianne Brunini led a session titled Operational Excellence: Mise en Place for EOS — a recipe for helping housing leaders find clarity, strengthen culture, and put systems in place that truly serve their mission.

Drawing from Christianne’s background as a chef and our firm’s deep experience with the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), we showed how the philosophy of mise en place (“everything in its place”) applies far beyond the kitchen. With the right ingredients, structure, and rhythm, housing organizations can reduce stress, sharpen accountability, and scale their impact in a sustainable way.
