SHIFT*GROUPSWhy we are building a community for change agents (v1.0)

2. The most challenging issues facing
organisations today require digital
skills, knowledge of new ways of
working and the ability to rethink
how organisations are structured
and managed.
But only a few senior leaders are
genuinely committed to updating
their organisation’s management
approach and methods…
Can leaders deal with today’s challenges?

companies

3. …Fortunately, digitally
savvy and forward-thinking
people in organisations
around the globe are
spreading innovative
business practices
- people just like you.

4. We consider these individuals
change agents because
they are actively driving
change inside their
organisations…

5. …whether it is a part of their
formal role or a personal
ambition, being a change
agent is an attitude.

6. Shift*Groups’ mission is:
to support you & your fellow
internal change agents with
what you need to transform
your ways of working, so we all
can build better organisations.

7. Our guiding objectives are:
Individuals with a
change agent attitude
exist in all companies.
But too often these
individuals and their
ideas do not get enough
visibility internally or
externally. We want to
give change agents an
outlet for their ideas.
Change is difficult and
daily life for change
agents can be tough.
Our team & fellow
change agents provide
a network of support for
reflection and working
through challenges, plus
a sounding board for
difficult issues.
Create visibility Be supportive Nurture innovation Stay agnostic
Today’s dynamic
business environment
requires approaches
that are fundamentally
different from traditional
business operations.
We provide inspiration &
stories that can inform
your own work and that
of your colleagues.
Most players in this area
advocate for one
method or technology.
Shift*Groups provides
inspiration & examples
for you to choose what
works best for your
organisation. In that
sense, we are agnostic
but purposeful.

8. Where we are now

9. The facts
We are a community of 200+ internal
change agents from around the
globe with a range of different levels of
experience.
Some members are community
managers, others are VPs or CEOs,
and we span across many industries:
manufacturing, telecommunications,
engineering, apparel and beverages to
name a few.
But we share the belief that
organisations must change how they
operate, and we are working together
on finding new approaches.
