Overview

The Power of Change

Many individuals, and leaders at all levels, are mistakenly using willful techniques to control themselves, the people around them and external conditions affecting them. We’ve all experienced how that kind of artificial influence is ineffective, resisted and often destructive.

If you want a better way, I hope you’ll look around my site. Everything you’ll find here reflects my belief that our world is indeed a very friendly place, teeming with opportunity and potential.

Conceptual and connected world
RedShift programs help individuals, organizations and executives meet the challenges of and increase their influence in the increasingly conceptual and connected world. Both will require, in addition to superior functional and technical skills, a mix of creative, entrepreneurial, leadership, communication and cognitive abilities. They also require shifts in belief and perception:

  • human and social impacts are as important as economic impacts
  • “what’s in it for me” is a failure approach
  • valuable intangible assets are part of the individual’s balance sheet
  • you can’t fool anyone about uniqueness, originality, authenticity, integrity
  • power continues to shift absolutely from seller to buyer
  • static web sites, even pretty ones, are irrelevant
  • your core message and brand promise must leap out of every communication

What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality.

A whole new change response
RedShift clients learn and embody new change responses by releasing willfulness and practicing willingness and receptiveness in their real-world, personal, business and professional problem solving and decision making experiences and change situations. This applied and experiential approach increases the likelihood of desired, and often unexpected, results by letting them happen rather than attempting to force them to happen.

Expansive results
The natural influence that results from shifting from a default, reactive response to a self-aware, co-creative response is powerful and expansive. The positive results that RedShift clients experience include social capital, brand awareness and sense response ability. These results extend to their relationships, teams, customers and clients, organizational change initiatives, communities and beyond.
