Executive coach Dr. Sam Adeyemi has published a new leadership guide titled 'SHIFTS: 6 Steps to Transform Your Mindset and Elevate Your Leadership.' The 256-page book presents a strategic framework designed to help professionals at all levels transform their approach to leadership and personal development. Published by Wiley, the work draws from Adeyemi's over three decades of leadership coaching experience and aims to create lasting positive change through a six-step methodology.
The SHIFTS framework encompasses six critical stages: seeing opportunities, hearing deeply, gaining insights, formulating strategies, implementing transformative actions, and achieving sustained success. These principles are presented as interconnected steps that can help leaders navigate increasingly complex professional environments. Key elements include cultivating vision, practicing deep listening, synthesizing complex information, developing innovative strategies, driving organizational change, and inspiring continuous growth.
The framework is designed to be universally applicable, targeting both emerging professionals and established executives. By emphasizing personal development, cultural awareness, and global leadership perspectives, Adeyemi offers a comprehensive approach to leadership that goes beyond traditional management techniques. The book builds upon Adeyemi's previous work and draws from his extensive background as CEO of Sam Adeyemi, GLC, Inc. and founder of Daystar Leadership Academy.
With over 52,000 program alumni and a social media following exceeding 3 million professionals, Adeyemi brings significant credibility to his leadership insights. For HR vendors, this publication represents a potential new resource that could influence leadership development programs, coaching services, and training materials. The framework's focus on mindset transformation and sustained success aligns with current trends in talent management that emphasize continuous learning and adaptive leadership.
The availability of this structured methodology may create opportunities for vendors to develop complementary products, workshops, or certification programs based on the SHIFTS framework. As organizations increasingly seek evidence-based approaches to leadership development, Adeyemi's work provides a systematic model that vendors can reference or incorporate into their service offerings. The book is now available through major booksellers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Bookshop.org.
