Level 10 Meeting Template

The Level 10 Meeting is the weekly heartbeat of a leadership team running on the EOS model. It is a same-day, same-time, same-agenda meeting that keeps the team aligned, holds everyone accountable to the numbers and the quarterly Rocks, and clears the issues that slow the business down. This template is for any leadership team that wants a repeatable, high-signal weekly cadence.

When to use it

Use it every week with your leadership team, ideally on the same day and at the same time so it becomes a habit nobody has to schedule. It works once you have a Scorecard, quarterly Rocks, and a shared issues list to pull from.

Who attends

Your leadership team, usually three to ten people. Each functional leader is in the room. Keep it small enough that every voice matters and large enough that decisions can actually be made.

How to run it

Start exactly on time and move briskly. The first half is a fast reporting pass: good news, the Scorecard, Rocks, headlines, and last week to-dos. The discipline here is to resist solving. Anything off track or unresolved is dropped onto the issues list without debate. That protects the bulk of the meeting for IDS, where the team identifies the most important issues, discusses each one, and solves it with a clear owner and action. Close by confirming new to-dos, deciding what to cascade to the wider team, and rating the meeting so it keeps improving.

Facilitator tips

• Protect the clock. The reporting sections are five minutes each for a reason.
• When discussion drifts, say "is this an issue?" and add it to the list.
• Solve the top three issues well rather than touching ten poorly.
• Assign every action to a single owner with a due date.

Common mistakes

• Solving issues during the Scorecard or Rock review instead of listing them.
• Letting the meeting run long, which trains the team that timeboxes do not matter.
• Vague to-dos with no owner, so nothing gets done by next week.
• Skipping the rating, which removes the feedback loop that keeps it sharp.

You can adapt this template to your team and run it in OrgTP live, with the Scorecard, Rocks, issues, and to-dos tracked in one place. OrgTP is built on the EOS cadence, so the weekly rhythm carries over without extra setup.
