Empowerment, Motivation & Trust

Michael Shull inspires people to turn strategy into measurable results by connecting vision to the work that truly matters. He believes that the best ideas come from those closest to the work and focuses on creating conditions where teams are not afraid to try new things, learn quickly, and grow. He also encourages people to challenge the status quo and rethink policies and procedures that were designed for conditions that no longer exist. His perspective on improvement was shaped early in his career in restaurants, broadened in construction, and evolved across government and nonprofit sectors, including healthcare, transportation, and tourism. Today, he leads the Continuous Improvement Program at Denver International Airport and founded The Organizational Improvement Habit in 2009 to share ideas that spark learning, inspire reflection, and drive action.
