FOR EOS Implementers
Create the conversations that deepen trust and strengthen relationships
WHAT PALABRA DOES
One evening.
One question.
Everyone connects through story.
Most EOS events focus on strategy and execution.
Palabra creates the trust and connection that deepen relationships and lead to more honest conversations.
We facilitate a storytelling experience built around a single question. Every person in the room engages with something true from their own life. Whether it’s a client appreciation dinner, a business development event, an EOS Annual Planning session, or a community gathering, leading with story changes the quality of the conversation.
THREE EXPERIENCES
Choose Your Format.
The Table
8–15 People · 3 Hours
Every person tells a story. Every person hears every other one. Small enough that nothing has to be performed. Long enough to talk about things that don't usually surface in a professional setting.
WHEN TO CHOOSE IT
Business development and client appreciation, an EOS Annual Planning session, or a relationship-building event where the goal is trust, referrals, and opportunities that emerge from knowing people more deeply.
The Circle
16– People · 3 Hours
A selected group of people tell their stories. The rest listen, respond, and close the evening by saying what they took from it. The depth of a small dinner, expanded to a larger group.
WHEN TO CHOOSE IT
When you want depth and intimacy but need more people in the room than The Table allows.
The Room
30–150 People · ½ Day
Everyone leaves with something they didn’t have when they arrived: a story they’ve discovered, shaped, and shared. Part workshop, part event, and fully participatory.
WHEN TO CHOOSE IT
A company-wide gathering, entrepreneur community event, or multi-team offsite where you want everyone actively participating, not simply listening.
IN THEIR WORDS
“Palabra did something I hadn't experienced since my Navy SEAL days. It built trust quickly.”
Alden Mills
Former Navy SEAL · Founder, Perfect Push-Up
“Palabra transformed our standard board dinner. Our members universally raved and continually referenced insights from that dinner over subsequent meetings.”
Verne Harnish
Founder, EO · CEO, Scaling Up
“The fact that I can still recall each participant's story nearly two months later speaks volumes about the depth of connection Palabra created.”
David Schnurman
CEO, Lawline · Former President, EO New York
“The conversation went somewhere most professional settings never reach. I'm already planning the next one.”
Ed O'Reilly
President, EO Barcelona
“Palabra is a great and meaningful way to come together. We could not have done it without David's moderating mastery.”
Diego del Valle
President, EO Mexico City
WHO RUNS EVERYTHING
Built by an Entrepreneur Who Understands EOS
David Rich · Founder, Palabra
David spent nearly three decades building and leading his own company before selling it and moving into advising, coaching, and facilitating conversations for entrepreneurs and leadership teams. Along the way, he saw firsthand that frameworks like EOS create alignment and accountability, but trust and connection often determine whether the most important conversations happen at all.
He started Palabra to create experiences that help people move beyond updates and problem-solving into the honest conversations that strengthen teams and relationships.
