From our inception as Elos Institute NL to our current existence as SH!FT Foundation, we have worked to generate diverse and dynamic leadership through informal learning journeys. In short we believe that everyone has the capacity to lead. SH!FT works with organisations through cooperative support and oversight. Our member organisations cultivate and support leaders, as individuals, teams, communities and organisations, who transition society towards a more sustainable and resilient future.
SH!FT Foundation is a non-profit organisation based in The Netherlands as a hub but works globally.
We believe it’s possible to create a sustainable and resilient society in which individuals, communities and the world are thriving.
Our clients include international organisations like the European Union, municipalities, business and organisations seeking to build and sustain stronger communities and navigate unfamiliar opportunities, challenges or conflict. We are glocal — global focus that is rooted in local thriving societies — working internationally, serving communities and organisations, creates thriving cultures of belonging and activism.
From our inception fostering belonging has been our primary business. All of our work as individuals, collaborators or within our organisation has been oriented towards what is now being popularised as Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, but we call it LeaderSH!FT.
Below are a few of our current offers and possibilities to shift.
To navigate the world’s complexity and challenges we face on global, inter-local level, we need different psychological, social and emotional approaches and skill-sets towards inter-relational action on personal, community and world level.
We believe the most powerful learning experiences happen in societal contexts where we can learn how personal, group,
organizational and societal changes are interconnected. Read here about SH!FT experiences on our blog.
