Welcome to Confessions of an Implementer, a podcast by Talent Harbor. We share unique stories of implementers and the companies they’ve transformed to give you a rare glimpse into the system's successes and challenges. I'm your host, Ryan Hogan.

In this episode, I sit down with Evan J. Blumenthal, a Certified EOS Implementer, to learn about how growing up in a fifth-generation entrepreneurial family and working at Walmart shaped his passion for business, leadership, and growth. From transforming a family business with EOS to guiding others as an implementer and advisor, he breaks down lessons on communication, sales, and the balance between ownership and functional roles in building sustainable businesses.
