The Business Problem:

Execution Falling Short of Ambitious Growth Plans

When Boston Centerless Owner and CEO Steve Tamasi partnered with Rhythm, he had big growth ambitions for his company. Despite hiring top talent and setting high-level goals, execution was slow, and progress on key projects was dragging.

The team was working hard, but they lacked a clear system for defining success. Without SMART goals or success criteria, alignment was lost, and the team struggled to understand exactly what they were working toward. Projects lacked clarity, timelines were vague, and results were delayed.

How Rhythm Helped:

SMART Goals and Intentional Communication to Drive Focus

Rhythm experts worked with the Boston Centerless team to hold structured, intentional planning sessions. Next, they broke down their long-term goals into quarterly milestones, and assigned supporting projects to different teams and owners. 

Part of their future vision included transforming their sales structure and process—a sizable endeavor that would require work from various departments. Rhythm helped the team interlink their goals to visualize how different departments were working together and keep the right people informed of progress updates. The introduction of the Daily Huddle further streamlined communication, allowing teams to quickly address issues, keep everyone informed, and maintain momentum.

The Results:

Accelerated Execution and Accelerating Growth

By implementing Rhythm's structured approach, Boston Centerless experienced a dramatic improvement in execution speed and business results:

• Completed their priorities 2X faster
• Successfully transformed sales structure and process in under a year
• Opened a second manufacturing plant

Their new facility has increased their manufacturing and distribution capacity, setting the stage for even greater success. The Rhythm team looks forward to continuing the growth journey together!
