Shift Model™
Scale + Track + Sustain
The Shift Model™ is a time-tested management toolkit developed over 20 years of working with business owners and executives.
It is a comprehensive management framework for setting direction, aligning people, implementing processes, and driving outcomes.
The model integrates fundamental management practices in a step-by-step process that enables business owners and executives to implement what they need when they need it.
The outcomes are a more integrated management approach and the ability to know where and how to recalibrate as needed. When you manage this way it ensures the impact desired is scalable, measurable, and sustainable.
The model works for any industry and is best for businesses and organizations that are at least five years old.
Vision
Shift Vision™ is the beginning of the process that lays the foundation for strategy and clear direction.
The clarity and focus at enterprise initiation often fade and are sometimes not revisited as a vital step in times of contraction and expansion. Vision is not a once and done. It is an essential element of comprehensive management.
It is critical in the process and implementation of strategy to revisit and adjust as needed in order to produce the desired outcomes for culture, process, and results.
Culture
Shift Culture™ focuses on people and creating a thriving work environment for all.
Once considered primarily a human resource function the importance of inclusion, engagement, and establishing healthy norms is now valued as a key outcome for many businesses and organizations.
Connecting people to vision, process, and results ensures a vested interest in success. It is an essential element of comprehensive management.
Process
Shift Process™ is the function of business operations that defines systems and procedures to improve workflow, operate effectively, and ensure responsibility for execution. These fundamental management practices support service and product development, marketing, and sales.
While not often overlooked, operational processes can be outdated and are frequently not integrated with other essential parts of the model resulting in a lack of clear direction and/or under-performance.
Valuing how process connects to vision, culture, and results creates an integrated and comprehensive management approach.
Results
Shift Results™ are indicators that demonstrate impact and provide a dashboard to track progress.
It defines outcomes that are essential to ensure customer and employee satisfaction, environmental and community impact, financial performance, and more.
Too often financial profitability is the only measure of success. Measuring results also through the lens of vision, culture, and process drives a more comprehensive management approach.
