Shift: A Practical Guide to Enhanced Service Management (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218790776)

Shift: A Practical Guide to Enhanced Service Management is a no-nonsense framework for improving service performance by tightening how people, process, and technology work together. Built for managers, team leads, and practitioners across industries, it moves beyond theory to help you ask better questions, make grounded decisions, and execute change that sticks.

Organized around three core tenets-People, Process, and Technology-and nine practical principles (Alignment, Communication, Engagement; Adaptability, Catalyst, Targets; Purpose, Requirements, Outcome), the book turns ideas into action with Deliberate Consideration notes, reflective "Mental Escapes," checklists, and hands-on exercises. A visual Shift Roadmap walks you through continuous improvement-from recognizing catalysts and planning change to measuring results and scaling what works-so teams can deliver reliable, repeatable outcomes.

The result is a practical, repeatable playbook for building resilient service ecosystems and achieving measurable gains in quality, speed, and trust.
