Mark Abbott sits down with Kris Snyder and Christine Watts to introduce Impact Moments, a new podcast from the team at Ninety, the EOS software platform companies have come to know, love, and trust for the past ten years.

This show is all about the real stories that shape culture, build clarity, and test leadership. These are the turning points inside EOS sessions and quarterlies that reveal what teams actually believe.

Created for EOS leaders, implementers, and teams, Impact Moments brings to life the moments that challenge alignment and strengthen culture when handled well.

Why now?
After years of working with more than 18,000 clients, the Ninety team wanted to share what they’ve seen up close. This podcast is a way to share those stories and support the broader EOS community.

In this episode:

• What an “impact moment” looks like in the room
• Why EOS success depends on how teams handle truth and tension
• How storytelling preserves culture and accelerates growth
• What to expect from the new show and who it’s built for

If you're running on EOS or helping others do it well, this is a podcast you’ll want to add to your queue. .

AI is changing how we work, but not by replacing people. It’s raising the bar for how we think.

In this Founder’s Framework episode, Mark Abbott explores what AI reveals about our habits, clarity, and decision-making. It doesn’t remove the need for good judgment. It makes the gaps more obvious.

This isn’t about fear or hype. It’s about learning how to think with AI in the loop and what that means for founders, teams, and culture.

You’ll hear:

• Why founders are still responsible for making hard calls
• How clear inputs lead to better AI outputs
• What it takes to build thinking teams in an AI-driven world

If AI feels destabilizing, it might not be the tech, but what it’s showing us about how we work.

You’ll hear:

-Why ambiguity strains teams more than most founders expect
-What “succeed or escalate” looks like in real leadership moments
-Why accountability, ownership, and meeting size matter more as you scale
