Hold on a minute! Before looking at the references of SHIFTSCHOOL, let’s ask ourselves why the heck you need references in the first place? Isn’t every transformation case different? And aren’t business references a hindrance if you really want to break new ground?
When we launched SHIFTSCHOOL in 2015, many people told us that it was pointless to start an academy without any references. They told us “People need the assurance that they choose the right partner. Only established players and traditional institutions can deliver that.” But we did not listen…
In the beginning we didn’t have neither fame nor fortune. But we did and made it anyway. Because we convinced companies with our passion for transformation, our deep understanding of the topic, and our network of outstanding experts in the field.
In the meantime things have changed. Today, we can easily play the bee waggle dance with our credentials. Over the years, the list of clients who had the courage to break new ground grew longer and longer.
But do you really need the name dropping?
If no, stop skimming this page and let us start talking right away.
If yes, and you still need a little reassurance to get started, we totally get that, too. But if you are thinking about working with SHIFTSCHOOL, don’t do it because we have worked with Siemens, Adidas, Merck or Bosch.
We worked with the Schwan Cosmetics management team around digitalization and how to perform as leaders in a changing business environment.
When a factory from the Bosch network recognized the need for digital transformation, they called us to work with their research & development teams to create an innovation-driven culture.
We created and delivered a hybrid innovation curriculum for senior leaders from Merck to develop entrepreneurial momentum and a growth oriented mindset.
SHIFTSCHOOL also partnered with many banks within the cooperative financial world to engage and inspire their leadership teams via a series of digitization workshops.
This is a selection of the courageous companies that have joined us in forging new innovative paths to successfully implement digital, sustainable, and social transformation:
There are two types of leaders: Those who think the world around them must change. And those who understand that they have to change themselves. We only work with the latter. Transformation is not about implementing new technologies but primarily about an open attitude towards change. Have a look at the people who work with us:
SHIFTSCHOOL means innovation in every aspect! In terms of didactic design and digitization insights. In addition to great training, the entire network offers valuable inspirations to be more innovative in everyday business. All in all, the cooperation with SHIFTSCHOOL is great and the team is always on hand with help and advice for us.
The collaboration with SHIFTSCHOOL has been really great right from the start. SHIFTSCHOOL is a reliable partner who always supports me with new insights and constructive critical thinking. Companies that want to make a difference should first send selected employees to SHIFTSCHOOL. Especially large corporates should work with SHIFTSCHOOL, because their programs really breathe new life into established systems. This is necessary, today and in the future!
What I really appreciate about working with SHIFTSCHOOL is the fact that I get so much inspiration and Best Practice that I can incorporate directly into my daily work. The large network of SHIFTSCHOOL is the big advantage. They collaborate with so many different companies and startups and, therefore, can offer a wide range of insights from many different industries.
What distinguishes the SHIFTSCHOOL is that it truly encourages people to (re-) discover their creativity. Faber-Castell’s vision is to unleash the creative potential of our customers as well as our employees. Within our global network, we see the SHIFTSCHOOL as an important innovation coach.
