You have a vision for who your organization can become next. Is that future being authored with intention, or inherited through assumption? Painted Porch Strategies partners with leaders at Phase Zero™, before the next major decision hardens into execution.
Leaders are carrying more change than their organizations were built to hold. The strategy makes sense in the boardroom, then shifts somewhere between the announcement and the people bringing it to life. The change moves forward, just not as far as you knew it could.
A good idea still meets the organization you already have, so before anything is built we read all three Painted Porch Pillars™. Cultural Cornerstone: leadership, culture, values, and the relationships that shape how your organization leads, decides, and evolves. Operational Frame: systems, workflows, structures, and the decision paths that move strategy from intention into reality. Living Ecosystem: the individual and collective capacity, judgment, and communication that keep a meaningful shIFt going.
The P.A.T.H.™ is the four stages of change: Prepare, Align, Take Off, Habits. Most change work starts at Take Off. Ours starts at Phase Zero™, inside Prepare. Envision ShIFt partners at Prepare, Architect ShIFt at Align, and Embody ShIFt from Take Off through Habits.
In 60 minutes with Amy, you'll read whether your current architecture can carry the shIFt, where misalignment would tax your momentum, and the first decisive move to make. It's also where the Epic ShIFt Organizational Appraisal begins.
Team workshops for leadership and cross-functional teams; keynotes from Amy Yackowski, Rob Hunter and Sierra Cantrell; and mini courses, masterclasses, labs and assessments for individuals on the P.A.T.H.way pages.
