Marcus and Rachel publicly unveil Streamlined OS, the operating system Collective by DBA built specifically for accounting firms to connect strategy, execution, measurement, and improvement in one place. They walk through how its 62-question assessment surfaces a firm's strengths and improvement areas, prioritizes three or fewer to tackle next, links each one to training and templates, and tracks progress against five core KPIs. They also get candid about running a less owner-dependent firm, why transparency with your team is worth the discomfort, and how the stabilize, systemize, and scale framework applied to DBA itself after its 2025 acquisitions.SponsorsDiscover.AI -  discover.ai Introducing Collective by DBAhttps://collective.cpahttps://www.linkedin.com/company/collectivebydbaLearn More About Dillon Business Advisorshttps://www.dillonadvisors.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/dillonbusinessadvisorsSign up to get free CPE for listening to this podcasthttps://earmarkcpe.comDownload the Earmark CPE AppApple: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/earmark-cpe/id1562599728Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.earmarkcpe.app(00:00) - Welcome to Who's Really the Boss (01:20) - What Is Streamlined OS (03:23) - Gather Conference Invite (07:16) - Why Firms Need It Now (09:40) - Optionality and Owner Dependence (11:46) - KPIs Dashboards Alignment (15:26) - Priorities and Next Steps (17:43) - Built From Real Experience (22:18) - Origin Story and Resources (26:15) - Pacing Change for Success (29:51) - What It Includes Next (30:59) - Dashboard KPI Tracking (31:45) - Team Assessment Setup (34:07) - Interpreting Results (35:45) - Focus Zones Resources (37:20) - Transparency With KPIs (42:45) - Five Core Metrics (46:34) - Owner Hours Value (50:53) - From Reporting To Action (53:49) - Collective Support Paths (55:10) - Credits Webinar Next Steps
