The Four Domains of organizational change

Durable change needs synchronized shifts across how people think and act, and how organizations relate and operate.

We pair the deep leadership of organizational identity (BE) with the daily leadership of organizational disciplines (DO) so behavior and systems consistently align with belief and culture.

When navigating change, many leaders focus only on that right side of the diagram. The DO.

This is the surface stuff of tweaking an SOP, editing KPIs, restructuring the org chart, scheduling meetings, adjusting processes, creating a To-Do list, or adding an espresso machine to the break room. Changing the DO can help relieve a limited problem, but it can't bring about innovation, maturity, strategic adjustment, conflict/crisis transformation, or whole-life/brand redefinition.

We Dig Deep into the left side of that diagram in order to get into The BE.

Through our Personal Vitality Assessment and the Team Clock Assessment through the Center For Team Excellence, we're able to listen well at a micro (personal) level as well as the macro (organizational) level to determine what your unique challenges and strengths are.
The goal? To help you understand these and work with them to development yourself, your team, or your organization.

Both organizations and people move through different seasons, each with its own pace and needs. Most leaders have a habit of driving their team in high gear no matter the season.
But, leaders of wisdom are learning to ease back the throttle in order to consider, "What season is our organization in? What season are we moving into? And, what kind of leadership does this require of me and others?"

Our assessment and coaching engagements help you see these details clearly, ask the questions relevant to your team's needs now and in the seasons ahead, and help you adapt to lead effectively whether you're in a season of growth, transition, recovery, or reset. 
 

Mindset + Meaning (Personal x Be)

  • Core beliefs, values, identity narrative, and calling

  • Inner Leadership Stance: Hope, courage, integrity

  • Sense-making: how I interpret risk, setbacks, and trade-offs

  • Decision filters & ethical non-negotiables (“what we stand for”)

  • Rituals of alignment (reflection, journaling, prayer/meditation)

Practices + Performance (Personal x Do)

  • Daily behaviors and skills: focus, feedback, conflict, execution

  • Routines that drive output: deep-work blocks, recovery, sprints

  • Personal health/energy practices that sustain performance

  • Fast feedback loops: plan → act → review → improve

  • Visible commitments: goals, habits, “ship-it” cadence

Organization + Operations (Institutional x Do)

  • Role clarity, team design, & decision rights (who decides)

  • Operating cadences: OKRs, stand-ups, retros, strategy reviews

  • Processes & workflows that reduce friction & error

  • Staffing, load-balancing, & recovery built into schedules

  • Incentives, metrics, & dashboards that reinforce desired actions

Culture + Cohesion (Institutional x Be)

  • Shared norms, trust, and psychological safety—“life together”

  • Candor with care: speak truth, repair ruptures, protect dignity

  • Inclusion and belonging across roles and levels

  • Rituals to build connection (check-ins, celebrations, debriefs)

  • Leaders modeling non-anxious presence/value-aligned behavior
