Leadership for the new paradigm

The world doesn’t need faster, bigger, or louder leadership.
It needs leaders who are more alive.

We create spaces of trust where courage, wisdom, and co-creation can thrive — from YPO Forums to executive teams and boardrooms.

Leadership is shifting.

Not only because the world has grown more complex —
but because we can no longer lead for growth alone.

This is the work we do at We Are Shifting: bringing leaders and teams into spaces of trust, collaboration, and aliveness, so they can meet complexity with wisdom — and shape a world worth leaving behind.

Together, we bring decades of experience in forum facilitation, governance, culture transformation, executive coaching, and scaling up organizations.

We believe leadership is not about doing more — it’s about being more. When leaders lead from aliveness and trust, they ignite transformation in their teams, their organizations, and the world around them.

Are you ready to step into the new paradigm?

The Source Code of Aliveness

Reconnecting leaders and organizations to what makes them fully alive, wise, and purposeful.

Our Purpose

We believe leadership is not only about navigating complexity.

It is about co-creating a different world.

A world where organizations serve not just growth,
but people, communities, and the wider system we all belong to.

That is why we bring leaders into spaces of trust, courage, and aliveness.

Because when leaders awaken to their true essence,
they ignite transformation in their teams,
their organizations, and the world around them.

Our Vision

We envision organizations that are truly human — led by leaders who root their decisions in trust, purpose, and aliveness.


In this future, growth alone is not enough. Companies regenerate the world they touch, nourish people and communities, and honor the wider system we all belong to.


Here, cultures thrive on trust instead of fear. Creativity and wisdom flow naturally. Diverse talent flourishes with meaning and belonging.


This is our vision: a new paradigm of leadership, where being fully alive is the foundation of thriving organizations — and a thriving world.

Our Trust Leaders

We are a collective of Trust Leaders, each bringing a unique gift into the spaces we hold. From shadow work and depth transformation to creativity and innovation, from governance and scaling to wellbeing, reflection, and earth wisdom — together we form an ecosystem that supports leaders and teams to thrive.


What unites us is a calling: to guide leaders beyond surface conversations into deeper truth, courage, and aliveness. We serve YPO Forums and executive teams worldwide — helping leaders and organizations grow with clarity, wisdom, and purpose.

How We Work With Culture

Trust as Foundation

Everything begins with trust. When leaders and teams feel safe to speak openly, listen deeply, and show up, honesty, collaboration and innovation naturally follow.

Presence as Power

We help leaders and teams reconnect to their own presence and purpose. When people feel truly seen and aligned, they bring fresh energy, creativity, and resilience into their work.

Co-Creation with Meaning

Culture thrives when people shape it together. By breaking old patterns and engaging in the missing conversations, leaders and teams unlock collective intelligence and bring transformation to life.

Wisdom in Action

True culture change happens when insight becomes practice. By translating reflection into action, leaders align what they know with how they lead — bringing integrity, coherence, and long-term impact.

Trust-Based Practice

Because relationships are everything.

Organizations thrive when trust is more than a value — when it becomes a daily practice. It shows up in how leaders listen, how teams collaborate, and how decisions are made.


Trust-based practice means moving beyond control and competition toward presence, responsibility, and genuine connection. It means cultivating relationships where people feel safe, valued, and alive — so performance grows as a natural outcome, not a forced one.

How Trust Shows Up in Practice

Listening deeply

Creating space for voices that are often unheard.

Holding accountability with care

Combining responsibility with humanity.


Inviting the missing conversations

Surfacing what is usually left unsaid.

Leading with presence

Bringing clarity and calm into complexity.
