Who We Are

🤙 We are Samuele, Michael, and Erik. From the start, we connected through endless conversations about work, learning, and how people and teams actually grow.

Despite our different paths, we shared a restless curiosity: why do traditional ways of working and thinking often feel out of sync with the world we live in today?

⚡️ Our programs grew naturally from these insights: not from theory alone, but from years of asking questions, trying things out, and helping each other — and others — navigate complexity with more clarity and intention.

Decentral Shift is simply the name we gave to a journey we’re still on.

❓ We keep asking ourselves:

How do we cultivate clarity in a distracted world?
How can teams learn faster and move together with less friction and more flow?
How do we build projects that truly matter — to ourselves, to others, to the future?

Our Organizing System is not up to date.

Our Organizing System (OS) — the invisible structure of beliefs, behaviors, and incentives that guide how we work and learn — is no longer fit for today’s realities.

The current OS in most organizations is still rooted in the logic of the industrial age: optimize for efficiency, control complexity, minimize risk. But the challenges we face today are different — faster and dynamic, more interconnected, more human-centered.

Attention has become the scarcest resource.
Learning and adapting have become core survival skills.
Innovation demands collaboration, not hierarchy.

We believe organizations need a new OS — one that reflects the complexity, values, and technologies of our time.
One that starts with individual mastery, grows through collective intelligence, and culminates in solutions that genuinely serve the world outside.

At Decentral Shift, everything we do — from trainings to coaching to immersive experiences — is rooted in this belief:

Change the way we learn, and we change the way we build, lead, and live.

Times have changed... drastically.

Before the mass adoption of the internet, information lived in centralized hubs — libraries, universities, institutions. Access to knowledge was a privilege, often limited by physical, social, or economic barriers.

Today, access is no longer the problem.
Information flows freely, instantly, and abundantly. The real challenge is no longer finding knowledge — it’s making sense of it, applying it, and turning it into action.

Individuals and organizations alike face a different kind of limitation: overload, distraction, and fragmented attention.

In this new reality, success is not determined by how much information you have, but by how quickly and wisely you can absorb, integrate, and act on it.
Organizations that can turn learning into real-time adaptation — by aligning individual mastery, group dynamics, and client focus — will thrive.

At Decentral Shift, we believe that enabling this kind of learning and application is the core task of any organization serious about its present & future.

Our way to a new Organizing System:
decentral shift.

We believe that the Organizing System best equipped for today's complexity is decentralized — not just in access to information, but in decision-making, learning, and adaptation.

Decentralization empowers individuals to act with clarity, teams to think and move together, and organizations to continuously evolve around their clients and the world.

By facilitating this shift — one person, one team, one project at a time — we help organizations unlock the full potential of their people and technology, and better meet the challenges we all share.

This is the foundation behind every program, coaching journey, and immersion we offer.

Our Mission

To ignite a shift — from noise to clarity, from control to collaboration, from rigid systems to living, learning organizations.

Our Experience

Here are some of our projects in the last months.

Zukunftsinstitut

We supported the transition of the organization towards an agile network organization. We facilitated the transition to a collective way of working, the homogenous usage of project management applications, and enabled employees with the corresponding skills to further work on the process.
