How EOS Influences Our Onboarding, Training, and Overall Values
At Storm Creek, we run on EOS. It is woven into our DNA, fostering a culture of continuous learning, adaptability, ownership, and growth. The EOS model has been imperative, not only in the success of our company, but in talent acquisition and new hire onboarding, as well. The EOS model guides us on strengthening and empowering our employees to cultivate a healthy, and productive culture that is attractive and inviting to new talent.
Let's dig into why.
🔍 What's EOS All About?
EOS isn't just a methodology; it's a mindset that fuels our commitment to nurturing talent and fostering a culture of innovation and teamwork. It provides a framework to attract candidates who resonate with Storm Creek values and long-term vision. Identifying individuals that embrace and live the culture leads to improved teamwork, better communication, and builds a strong foundation for growth and success. It's a dynamic approach that revolves around:
🚀 Entrepreneurial Mindset
We believe every team member plays a vital role in our journey, and EOS instills an entrepreneurial mindset in all employees, encouraging them to take ownership and drive results. Here at Storm Creek we call it "Seeking Better." Everyone, from our leadership team to departments and individuals, strives to live our value of Always Seek Better in everything they do.
🌟 Vision Alignment
Through EOS, we ensure that every new hire understands our company's vision, goals, and values from day one. Having clarity and alignment fuels a sense of purpose, guides decisions and collective direction. It also ensures we have the right person in the right seat! Employees are doing what they love and making a difference. They can take pride and ownership in meeting the company goals by living the value of Passion For Growth.
🛠️ Tools for Success
EOS equips our employees with a toolkit of skills they need to excel in their roles. By developing systems to identify and solve issues, streamlining and documenting core processes for training and consistency, and establishing clear priorities and goals provides employees with the tools needed to be successful.

Our tailored onboarding program includes Storm Creek U, where new hires learn all about the company, how each department works, and how EOS is weaved into all aspects of the company. We have found StormU is critical to our success and helps us bring in new hires effectively, efficiently, and contributing right off the bat.
In addition, each department has a set of standards and processes that a new hire is trained on. One of our values is Think and Be Curious. Providing continuous growth and learning through weekly Continuous Education training and professional development is a strong piece of our culture.
📊 Clear Metrics
With EOS, success isn't a vague notion – it's defined by clear, measurable metrics. New employees know what's expected and how they contribute to our collective achievements by having clarity in what they are responsible for and making a noticeable impact daily through our value of Engage With Purpose. Peer and Leader recognition for success and living our values is an integral part of our Values Victor program as well as our Shared Success Bonus Program.
🤝 Collaborative Culture
EOS fosters collaboration and open communication, creating an environment where fresh ideas are welcomed, and diverse perspectives are celebrated. We have cross-departmental meetings often to ensure all touch points are kept in mind throughout any strategy adjustments.
We also host a variety of all-company outings, like our Annual Golf Tournament, Pedal Pub, happy hours, team building courses and more, that encourages employees to get to know each other on a more personal level.
Leveraging EOS in our hiring and culture development helps Storm Creek attract individuals who are excited to be part of the journey and build a strong foundation for sustainable growth and success.
