This off-season, we partnered with the Greenhouse, an organization specializing in helping businesses and people reach the next stage of growth. Together, we’ve. embarked on a journey thorough EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) training to rethink and improve how we deliver value and achieve our mission of FUN making a difference in people’s lives.

At the Larks, we’re always looking for ways to elevate the experiences we create for our fans, partners, employees and the community. We know that as corporate leaders, you also share a drive to enhance your customer and employee experiences.

During this process, we’ve seen incredible growth as an organization, as the Greenhouse has helped us take stock of where we’re at, where we’re going, and how we’re going to get there. We invite you to follow along on this five-episode series, as the Greenhouse helps take the Bismarck Larks to the next stage.

Part 3: Vision Building Day 1

The Larks walked into Vision Building Day 1 at The Greenhouse fired up and ready to talk purpose and passion. We live for those things and we’re not too shy to tell you all about it. But when our leadership sat down to identify the core values and the WHY driving our decisions, we found out it looked a little different for everyone.
Patrick guided our team through difficult conversations many businesses face when getting clear and concise about their vision, even those with as much passion as the Larks. It took some honest conversations, debate, and teamwork to get there. But we left with clarity about who we are and where we are going. Now, we have our eye on that Big Hairy Audacious Goal, and we like the way it looks.

Part 2: Focus Day

Our journey with The Greenhouse and EOS started with Focus Day, a powerful deep dive into Foundational Tools that are already transforming the Larks organization. By implementing tools like Accountability Charts, Level 10 Meetings, and Rocks, we’re seeing greater efficiency, stronger accountability, and better time management—allowing us to focus on what truly matters.

What does this mean for our fans and community?

By strengthening our internal operations, we’re setting ourselves up to better live our mission—using FUN to create lifelong fans, core memories, and a stronger community. When our team operates at a higher level, we can deliver even more unforgettable experiences, elevate our game nights, and bring more impactful moments to the people we serve.

In Part Two of The Greenhouse Journey, Patrick, John, and Rob break down these tools and share how EOS is helping us reach the next level—not just as an organization, but as a team dedicated to making a difference.
