About The Up-Ward Shift (TUWS)
"Helping organizations grow through leadership and support."
Our Story
"Who We Are"
TUWS was created to help organizations grow stronger by developing better leaders. We help leaders build teams that work well together, care for one another, and achieve their goals.
I am RJ WILLIS, the founder of TUWS. With over 13 years of experience in mental health and leadership, I understand how important it is to create workplaces where people feel supported and valued. I believe great leadership starts with empathy, understanding, and the ability to foster a positive and supportive environment for everyone involved.
Our Approach
At TUWS, we believe leadership is more than just getting the job done. It’s about creating a culture where everyone feels respected, heard, and motivated to do their best. We provide leadership development, mental health training, and organizational support that helps teams become stronger, happier, and more successful.
Suffering in Silence
"Ending the Stigma"
Suffering in Silence refers to the mental health struggles that many people face but don’t talk about. Our goal is to help organizations create an open environment where it’s okay to speak up about barriers and to get help. We help leaders learn how to support their team’s mental health and well-being.
