Highlights from the GIBS 2025 Prophet Training


Highlights from the GIBS 2025 Prophet Training 

Prophets from across the Genstar Portfolio gathered in Chicago for advanced 80/20 training, focused on execution, facilitation, and accelerating business impact. 

We recently concluded a Prophet training session at the Loews Hotel in Chicago, bringing together a new cohort of Prophets from across Genstar portfolio companies. Led by 80/20 experts Joe Michels and Michael Mostek, the multi-day session focused on building in-depth knowledge, developing stronger facilitation skills, and acquiring practical tools to drive EBITDA growth and eliminate waste. 

This immersive experience provided participants with actionable insights on how to implement 80/20 within their respective businesses. Sessions included guidance on overcoming common roadblocks, peer learning from established PROPHETs, and live facilitation practice to sharpen their ability to lead teams through complexity-reduction and strategic focus. 

Beyond technical training, the event fostered cross-company collaboration and reinforced the critical role PROPHETs play in embedding 80/20 thinking across the enterprise. 

Thank you to all who attended and contributed to the success of the training. Your continued growth and leadership are essential to unlocking value across our businesses.
