The Shift® Collective

The Partnership, built for organizations who don’t need to go it alone.

Build Together.

Not every organization needs, or can resource, a private, fully custom partnership. The Shift® Collective gives you the same depth: a real diagnostic, real leadership development, real culture work  inside a cohort of organizations moving through it together.

Same frameworks. Same practitioners. Same commitment to building something that lasts.

Why We Built It

Some organizations, particularly those with under $1 million in revenue, may not be looking for a custom embedded partner just yet. Instead, they’re looking for a structured space to grow alongside other leaders who are navigating the same complexity from different seats.

That’s what The Shift® Collective was built for.

The Collective is built for the season before that. Or for leaders who simply want to grow in community, and for whom that shared container is exactly the right fit.

It’s a cohort-based experience designed for growing organizations that want peer community, shared frameworks, and real accountability — moving through the work together rather than alone.

How It Works

This is the group version of the Partnership — but it builds on what’s already there. If your organization is still shaping its strategic vision, operating model, or talent systems from the ground up, that’s private partnership work.

The Collective strengthens the leadership and culture carrying a plan you already have.

Your organization moves through four phases, starting with your own diagnostic, not a shared curriculum:

The 4 Stages

Diagnostic & Roadmap

We run a real diagnostic with your organization, not a self-serve survey you fill out alone, to see where your leadership, your managers, and your culture actually stand. 

Senior Leadership Alignment

Your senior team works through where you already agree, where you don’t, and what needs to be true for everyone to be pulling the same direction.

People Manager Development

Your managers build the skills most people are never actually taught before being put in charge of others — feedback, accountability, hard conversations.

Culture & Ways of Working

We look honestly at what’s actually shaping how people experience your organization day to day, and build a real plan to shift what needs shifting.

Everything you need to build

in a format that works for the size and stage you are in. 

Each collective cohort includes 5-8 organizations, who are learning, creating, and growing together through a carefully designed series of experiences to meet your needs:

Onboarding session

Orientation, cohort introductions, and playbook overview before the work begins. You’ll meet your cohort peers, understand how the six months are structured, and leave knowing exactly what to expect and how to prepare your team.

ORG HEALTH DIAGNOSTIC

Opening and closing — so you can see exactly what moved over six months. You’ll start with a baseline picture of where your organization is, and end with data that shows what actually shifted — in culture, leadership, and how your people experience the work.

LIVE COHORT TRAINING SESSIONS

Facilitated sessions covering leadership development, culture systems, team effectiveness, and organizational design — built for real application. You’ll leave each session with something you can use the following week.

PEOPLE INFRASTRUCTURE PLAYBOOK

Your organization’s operating foundation — built session by session, owned entirely by you. We give you the templates and the facilitation. You do the thinking and make it yours. By the end you’ll have nine working documents covering culture, leadership, hiring, development, and more.

Peer learning and community

You’ll move through this alongside other leaders navigating similar complexity from different organizations.

Different contexts, same challenges, shared language by the end.

strategic advisory

Three private touchpoints with your dedicated Tayden strategic adviser — one at the start, one mid-cohort, one at the close.
You decide who’s in the room. These aren’t check-ins. They’re the space where you pressure-test what you’re building and get real-time guidance on what’s getting in the way.

We are immensely grateful to Tayden Impact Partners, and especially to Dynasti Hunt and her exceptional team, for their outstanding contributions to the YMCA’s journey.

Their expertise, dedication, and personalized approach have been transformative for our organization.

Thanks to their guidance, we have seen a measurable shift in our culture, policies, and practices that better reflect our commitment. Tayden Impact Partners has been a pivotal partner in helping us live out our mission in a way that resonates with every individual we serve.
