Every engagement is built around the shift you’re navigating.

There’s no one-size-fits-all here. The right entry point depends on who you are, what you’re navigating, and what kind of support will actually move the needle. Browse the options below — and if you’re not sure where you fit, the discovery call is always the right place to start.

Coaching

One-on-one coaching built around the SHIFT Methodology™ — for those navigating personal, professional, and relational transitions. Every engagement begins with an honest conversation about where you are and where you want to go. From there, we determine the right fit.

Targeted

Shift
  • For the person who knows what they’re navigating and is ready to move.
  •  
  • Focused coaching for a specific challenge, transition, or decision. Six sessions, a personalized action plan, and accountability support to help you move from uncertainty to clarity.

transformational

Shift
  • For the person ready to do the deeper work.
  •  
  • Twelve sessions of sustained support across multiple dimensions of life, leadership, and identity — including assessments, a personalized growth plan, and voice and text coaching between sessions. This is the one for when you know the shift is bigger than one thing.

Executive

Coaching
  • For senior leaders, executive directors, founders, and CEOs who need a peer-level thinking partner.
  •  
  • High-stakes, one-on-one coaching built around what you’re actually navigating — not a generic curriculum. The right mix of listening, pushback, challenge, and support. Available as a focused or transformational engagement.

Business Shift

Coaching
  • For founders and entrepreneurs ready to build something profitable — on purpose.
  •  
  • Coaching grounded in the Biz Shift model — Seven Pillars every profitable business must have clarity on before strategy can succeed: Purpose, Problem, People, Packaging, Positioning, Profitability, and Promotion. We work through each pillar honestly and in the right order.

RelationSHIFT™

Coaching
  • For couples, co-founders, and partners navigating tension, transition, or misalignment.
  •  
  • Structured, honest coaching grounded in the SHIFT Methodology and the Courageous Conversations Framework. Available as a focused or transformational engagement. Both people show up. Both people grow.

Facilitation

Skilled facilitation for groups, teams, communities, and organizations navigating complex conversations, planning processes, and transitions. Every facilitation engagement is custom-designed for the specific people, context, and desired outcome.

We don’t show up with a canned agenda. We show up with a process — built around what your group actually needs to move.

Leadership Cohort

& Network Facilitation
  • For foundations, funders, and organizations investing in sustained leader development.
  •  
  • Multi-session cohort and network facilitation designed to develop leaders over time. Not one-time events. Sustained partnerships that build trust, deepen learning, and create lasting change.

Board & Executive Team

Facilitation
  • For boards and leadership teams navigating alignment, conflict, or transition.
  •  
  • Facilitated sessions for governance bodies and senior leadership teams — including strategic planning, team alignment, and the kind of honest conversation that moves organizations forward.

Community Convenings

& Listening Sessions
  • For foundations, nonprofits, and community organizations bringing multiple stakeholders together.
  •  
  • Multi-stakeholder facilitation for convenings, planning processes, dialogue sessions, and community engagement initiatives. We build trust, find the common ground, and design containers where honest conversation becomes possible.

Retreats

Private & Team
  • For individuals, leadership teams, sororities, and community groups
  •  
  • Designed retreat experiences built on the Seven-Step Delivery Framework. Private retreats for individual deep dives. Team and group retreats for alignment, culture work, and renewed connection. Every retreat is custom-designed.

Advisory

Strategic thinking partnership for leaders and organizations at critical moments of transition, decision, or growth. Advisory is for when you need outside eyes, honest counsel, and someone who can see what you can’t see from inside the situation.

We are not a training vendor. Though a lot of what we do educates and empowers. We are not an ordinary consulting firm. Though we spend a great deal of time advising, strategizing, and building plans. We are transformation partners — and we stay in it for the long game.

Strategic

Consultation
  • For leaders navigating a specific decision, transition, or turning point.
  •  
  • A focused advisory engagement for a defined moment — a leadership transition, a strategic decision, a governance challenge, or a crossroads that requires an experienced outside perspective. Scoped per engagement.

Organizational

Advisory & Consulting
  • For organizations that need a thinking partner across multiple dimensions of their work.
  •  
  • Ongoing advisory relationship for nonprofits, foundations, and mission-driven organizations. Includes change management support, organizational diagnostics, and the kind of strategic counsel that helps leadership move with clarity and alignment.

Leader

Development
  • For organizations ready to build a real culture of leadership — not just a training calendar.
  •  
  • Designing and strategizing leader development programs, experiences, and infrastructure. This includes leader development strategy, cohort and network design, program design and curriculum development, and building the systems that develop people over time. One of our favorite things to do.

Culture

Shift
  • For organizations ready to do the real work of shifting who they are — not just what they say.
  •  
  • Culture change is not a workshop. It is a sustained effort that requires honest diagnosis, committed leadership, and a clear plan. This engagement includes organizational assessments, culture change strategy, change management planning, and the facilitation and advisory support to move it forward.

Interim

Executive Leadership
  • For organizations navigating a leadership gap or organizational crisis.
  •  
  • Senior-level interim executive leadership for organizations that need experienced capacity during a transition. Marissa has served as Interim Executive Director and Interim CEO for multiple organizations — assessing the situation, stabilizing operations, and building the foundation for what comes next.

Startup &

Formation Advising
  • For new organizations, coalitions, and initiatives finding their footing.
  •  
  • Advisory support for organizations in formation — establishing governance structures, clarifying purpose and direction, designing programs, and building the foundation before building the house.

The Inner

shift

Private coaching is an investment — and it’s worth it. But our purpose is bigger than my price point.

The Inner SHIFT is a community for women in motion — navigating life, leadership, and business transitions together. It’s where you get access to the methodology, the coaching, and the community at a rate that works.

Two group coaching calls monthly. Honest conversation. Shared accountability. Resources to keep you moving between sessions. And a community of people who get it — because they’re in it too.

shift
Founding Member
  • For those who want access, community, and momentum at an investment they can say yes to.
  •  
  • Two group coaching calls monthly led by Marissa. Shared space for honest conversation and real accountability. Resources, reflection prompts, and tools from the SHIFT Methodology. Access to a growing community of women navigating change with intention.

Speaking

Marissa Coleman Moore is a national speaker on leadership, transition, and the human side of change.

She speaks to the person underneath the title — the one navigating the drift, the disruption, the decision about what comes next.

Her keynotes are not motivational in the traditional sense. They’re honest. They’re grounded. And they create the kind of shift that doesn’t wear off on the drive home.

Before we take the stage, we take the time. We want to understand your audience, what they’re working on, what they’re grappling with, and what would actually move the needle. What we deliver is customized to your moment.

“When you don’t want business as usual, you want Make Shift Happen® International.”
