MEET THE TEAM

Scott Sypniewski

Owner/Visionary + CEO

My personal mission is to help others achieve success by understanding what they truly want. Whether it’s in faith, family, health, business, or community, applying the principles of Extreme Ownership has positively transformed every part of my life.

I’m Scott Sypniewski Sr, the Visionary and CEO of SSLLC Plumbing. I grew up in Oak Lawn, a neighborhood on the southwest side of Chicago. From a young age, I worked alongside my dad in our family’s multifamily plumbing business, which taught me the value of hard work and gave me a deep understanding of the plumbing industry.

After high school, I attended Western Michigan University, where I played five years of football and earned a degree in accounting. Following graduation, I spent 12 years working for an industrial pipe, valve, and fitting supply company. That experience helped me build a strong foundation in operations, supply chain, and customer service.

In 2000, I followed in my father’s footsteps and started my own plumbing company. Over the next 18 years, my wife Kathleen and I raised our four kids while building and running a successful small business. In 2018, we handed that company over to a trusted employee and relocated to Colorado to start a new chapter.

In June 2021, I read Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink and Leif Babin, and it completely changed my mindset. I realized that to become a better leader, I first had to learn to lead myself. The principles of accountability and teamwork from that book became the foundation of how I lead and live.

When the right opportunity came along in July 2021, Kathleen and I were ready. With her support, we launched SSLLC on August 1, 2021, with a clear vision: to build a company centered on the success of others.

Today, SSLLC is a growing team of over 90 people, including 30 management professionals and 60 plumbers. We operate using the principles of Extreme Ownership and the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), and we’re driven by our core values — Teamwork, Lead, Humility, and Take Ownership.

Kathleen Sypniewski

Owner + Chief Culture Officer

I am Kathleen Sypniewski. I am the co-owner and Chief Culture Officer of SSLLC Plumbing. I have been married to Scott for 32 years, and we have 4 children.

When we began SSLLC in August 2021, I supported the team by managing the finances. Our business grew quickly. We set a 10-year goal of 80% retention of our clients and 80% retention of our employees, 80/80. We realized our team needed a person whose role was to champion for them. I became the Chief Culture Officer. In my role, I promote our culture through training the core values of Teamwork, Leadership, Humility, and Ownership. We strive to provide leadership opportunities for our team and take ownership of everything in our lives, the good and the bad.

When I am not working, I love to travel and be outside in the mountains.

Chief Operations Officer + Integrator

I’m Scott Sypniewski Jr., the Chief Operating Officer and Integrator at SSLLC Plumbing. Since joining the company in 2022, I’ve been focused on driving operational excellence and ensuring strategic alignment across the organization. As part of a leadership team that operates under the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), my role is to translate vision into execution—keeping our team aligned, accountable, and results-driven.

Based in Chicago, I stay closely connected with our Colorado operations by regularly traveling to meet with our team on-site regularly. I’m known for building structure, driving performance, and embodying our core values—Teamwork, Lead, Humility, and Take Ownership—in everything I do.

Before entering the business world, I played college football at the University of Michigan earning a bachelor’s degree in English and followed by a final season at Vanderbilt University, where I earned a master’s in Marketing and Sales. My athletic background taught me the value of discipline, resilience, and high performance under pressure—qualities I bring to my leadership every day.

I lead with a mindset of Extreme Ownership, taking full responsibility for outcomes and fostering a culture of trust, accountability, and continuous improvement.

Outside of work, I’m married to my wife, Emily. We have a dog named Hokey, and I’m an avid golfer always chasing the next great round.
