Join our Culture Shifting Community. Benefit from our Knowledge + Network.

The Culture Shifting Methodology applies our
Knowledge + Network
to activate culture shifts.

The Culture Shifting Methodology (CSM).

The CSM is a transformation model that is a cornerstone of Culture Shift Labs’s advisory. It incorporates the lessons learned from over 200 client engagements.

The CSM taps into our proprietary Knowledge + Network Formula to unlock tangible results. The Knowledge consists of our proprietary processes and tools, such as Action Tanks, Innovation Labs, Assessments, and Master Classes. The Network consists of the Culture Shifting Community – a highly-curated database of 14,000+ multicultural accomplished subject matter experts – plus their 120,000-person network, both of which grow daily.

Organizations that implement the CSM have the collective power and insight of all of our solutions working together to accelerate board, leadership, workforce, business and corporate development, and corporate social responsibility. It can be implemented in parts or as a cohesive activation roll-out.

The three service pillars of Culture Shift Labs.

Advising

We work with chief executives to unlock growth and innovation through social impact. Together we accelerate leadership, corporate, talent and business development outcomes 70% faster. Our clients are leading brands and forward-thinking organizations that have discovered that profit and cultural diversity can coexist.

Our engagements often start with the benchmarking of our client’s status and performance. This process uncovers untapped intellectual, social and human capital opportunities.

Inquire about our proprietary Katapult™ Assessment’s (short or extended) to discover your diversity and innovation gaps.

Inspired by network science experts and well-known thought leaders, the Connectedness Curve® is a proprietary assessment that analyzes diversity network gaps. Leveraging our Katapult Talent Database we then work with clients to deliver the resources, relationships, and business introductions they need to close those gaps.

We serve as a non-fiduciary arranger or advisor in identifying acquisition deals, strategic partnerships and joint ventures, to enhance diversity in your commercial priorities. We utilize our Katapult Talent Database for additional sources of deal flow. We also provide recommendations on diversity in investing (Venture Capital / Private Equity / Impact / Family Office).

Strategy

Our high-end diversity and innovation strategy services support the entire lifecycle, from integrated master strategies to fully-detailed, immediately actionable rollout plans. We help our clients become more effective leaders, which in turn creates better performing organizations.

Our experts are able to provide advice on how to organize, resource, sequence, and schedule D&I program elements. We are able to provide project and program plans suitable for orchestrating unit-level, national, and multi-country roll-outs.

Much of the best practices, lessons learned and science of Diversity and Inclusion are unknown to organizations. To help organizations understand the power and profit in Diversity and Inclusion, we provide a wide range of learning, leadership and talent programs. Services include:

Action Tanks and Innovation Labs
Companies need diverse perspectives from all facets of industry to spark new revenue streams and innovation, but often they simply do not have enough diverse thinkers within their ranks. Through full-day, multi-day or weekend action-oriented action tanks, we help organizations innovate faster and better by leveraging diversity and inclusion. These services can be delivered together or separately.


Experiential Learning Exercises and Boot Camps

Our experiential learning engagements are designed to transfer knowledge of theory, practice, trends and emerging issues related to diversity, inclusion, innovation, and leadership. These experiences can be used to engage board members, senior leadership, and talent managers.

Master Classes

We provide best practices of diversity and inclusion management practices for top leaders, including CEOs and their C-Suite, to ensure they operationalize the principles of financial and social returns. Master Classes are custom-designed and include real-world case studies featuring organizations who have deployed successful diversity and inclusion strategies.
