Why Crucial Shift Consulting?

We have the specialized expertise and practical experience needed to help you navigate organizational challenges and achieve your mission-driven goals.  We understand that each higher education organization is unique and requires practical, systematic, context-specific approaches to shifting the minds, hearts and actions of campus *stakeholder groups to implement new programs, policies, and changes in ways that maximize successful adoption and build agility to shift rapidly in a changing environment.

​*Stakeholders can include chancellors, presidents and their cabinets, deans, department chairs, faculty, directors, supervisors, professional and classified staff, students, governing boards, alumni, government agencies, industry leaders and citizens. 

Whether reactively responding to a crisis, or proactively implementing a student enrollment and retention program, technology project, curriculum development program or developing a strategic plan, we know that change management involves accurately assessing where you are, determining where you want to go, balancing competing priorities, and then mitigating the obstacles to getting to the desired outcome.

There's no substitute for the time, preparation, and dedication needed to achieve the clarity and capacity to solve problems, seize opportunities and achieve academic, research and service goals together in a manner that builds--rather than destroys--a culture of trust, community and effectiveness in the face of unrelenting change.
