The 7 Shifts
What is The 7 Shifts Leadership Program?
The handbook and support nobody gave you when you became a leader.
An 8-week practical program that systematically transforms how you lead - from doing everything yourself to developing a capable, confident team.
No theory. No fluff. Just the exact tools, scripts, and frameworks that work in the messy reality of leading real people through real challenges.
Built from 25 years helping hundreds of leaders navigate exactly what you're facing now.
The September 2025 Live Round is your chance to learn and lead in real time — with group coaching that gets personal, a circle of peers who get it, and the kind of support that has you implementing each shift the same day you learn it.
The 7 Shifts Will Help You
Go from overworked manager to confident, clear leader - one shift at a time.
Whether you're drowning in reactive chaos, solving everyone else's problems, or struggling to develop your team's capability.
This 7-module program gives you the exact tools, frameworks, and support to transform how you lead.
___________________________
The 7 Shifts work because each one makes the next possible:
You can't protect time until you know your real job.
You can't set expectations without time to think.
You can't have hard conversations without clear expectations.
You can't build trust without honest communication.
You can't delegate without trust.
You can't lead strategically until your team is capable.
Skip one, and you'll struggle with the rest. Master them in order, and watch everything change.
___________________________
And let’s be real, these shifts won’t come from theory, podcasts, or a burst of motivation.
They come from real tools that work in the messy, unpredictable world of leading people.
That's exactly what The 7 Shifts gives you.
What makes The 7 Shifts Program Worth It
Everything You Need to Lead with Clarity and Confidence
1. Lead with Confidence, Not Overwhelm
Forget theory—these are tools you'll use Monday morning. Each week brings one shift to life through bite-sized videos, plug-and-play templates, and exercises you'll apply immediately. Build capability through your daily work, not on top of it.
2. Learn from Real-Time, Live Expert Guidance
You'll join a small cohort for eight live coaching sessions where we tackle your real challenges in real-time. This is where learning becomes action — with immediate support to integrate each shift into your daily leadership.
5. Limited Opportunity—Real Impact
This round is capped at just 25 leaders, starting in September. After this, the hybrid version with live coaching and community won’t be offered at this price again. It’s a chance to get leadership support when you need it, not later..
3. Be Supported by a Community That Cares
You won’t go it alone. You’ll be in a private group with other leaders who get it—people in the same trenches, facing the same issues, figuring leadership out in real time. It’s practical peer support, not networking fluff.
4. Built for Long-Term Transformation
This isn’t one-and-done training. You get lifetime access to videos, tools, templates, and updates so you can return to them as your role evolves. From juggling a new project to managing bigger teams, the toolkit grows with you.

Are The 7 Shifts Right for Me?
The 7 Shifts is for front-line leaders who are tired of working harder instead of leading better, constantly putting out fires, or wondering if they're actually cut out for leadership.
Regardless of your industry, thriving as a leader means knowing how to set boundaries, have difficult conversations, and develop people - not just manage tasks.
YES, The 7 Shifts works for:
✓ New managers who got promoted but never got trained
✓ Experienced leaders stuck in old patterns that no longer work
✓ Team leads drowning in everyone else's problems
✓ Department heads whose teams won't make decisions without them
✓ Small business owners trying to build capability, not dependency
✓ Project managers who need their team to step up
This is NOT for:
✗ Senior executives managing other managers
✗ Solo contributors without direct reports
✗ Leaders looking for quick fixes without doing the work
✗ Those wanting theory without practical application
Bottom line: If you lead people and feel overwhelmed more often than empowered, this program will transform how you work.
