Consulting Practice EB Meridian Opens Nine-Session Series on the Operational Patterns Undermining Mid-Market Execution

The Fall 2026 program confronts the growing disconnect between strategic plans and actual execution within firms earning $5M to $250M in revenue

"Strategy is clear. The team is capable. But execution either isn't happening at scale or is plagued by redundancies while still being maladaptable.”— Ed Brzychcy

EB Meridian, a leadership consulting practice founded by TEDx speaker Ed Brzychcy, has announced that registration is now open for a nine-session live series held on Fridays from September 18 through November 13, 2026. The program tackles a recurring issue Brzychcy has observed while working with mid-market leadership teams over recent years. Execution breakdowns are seldom attributable to flawed strategy or insufficient team ability. Instead, they stem from specific, repeating operational patterns that most organizations fail to properly address.

Mid-market companies—those generating roughly $5 million to $250 million in revenue—have spent the last three years dealing with accumulating pressures. High turnover among senior-level staff, cross-functional conflicts that defy typical restructuring efforts, and strategy documents that become useless when market conditions shift unexpectedly all point to deeper, systemic problems. What Brzychcy’s consulting work has uncovered is not a leadership gap or a strategy gap. It is a diagnostic gap. Leaders can sense something is off. But pinpointing what is actually breaking is where most organizations get stuck.

"Every mid-market CEO I talk with describes some version of the same problem," Brzychcy said. "Strategy is clear. Their teams are capable. But execution either isn’t happening at scale or is plagued by redundancies while still being maladaptable. When we use our diagnostic, the failure is almost never where they expected."

Each 90-minute session focuses on one operational pattern: the individual leadership habits that shape organizational behavior downstream, the core systems of strategy, people, and processes that bear the load, and the points where those systems either work together or break down. Attendees are encouraged to be open about the specific challenge currently on their desk. The session applies the diagnostic to that real-world material in real time.

The framework guiding the series has been developed over a decade of consulting with middle-market leadership teams across manufacturing, professional services, technology, and healthcare. Before the fall program, this material was delivered exclusively through one-on-one consulting engagements and closed executive cohorts.

Sessions can be purchased individually, by tier, or as a full-series pass, with a group discount for organizations sending three or more participants. Full pricing and registration information is available at ebmeridian.com/fall26.
