BACKGROUND

Peter Berridge, co-author of the #1 New Release Feedback Reimagined endorsed by Shawn Achor and Marshall Goldsmith, is an accomplished coach and facilitator who utilizes the sciences of Positive Psychology and executive coaching to help individuals, teams, and organizations be more engaged and effective. Pete became a certified coach through the Hudson Institute of Santa Barbara and is faculty with the Center for Coaching Organizations. He is one of the first 200 people in the world with a Master of Applied Positive Psychology (MAPP) degree from the University of Pennsylvania, the study of human strengths and well-being, and employs proven methods to promote the flourishing of people, organizations, and communities. It is with this training that the Shift Positive 360® was born. Pete was determined to leverage the latest research to transform the feedback process and bring out the best in people.

Pete has 25+ years of coaching (more than 5,000 hours of individual coaching), facilitation, and executive HR experience. Pete’s passion is coaching senior executives, rising leaders, teams, and organizations that are navigating challenges and charting new directions. 

APPROACH + PHILOSOPHY

We all share basic human drivers: competence – wanting to be good at what we do; significance – making a difference; belonging – being connected to others; and autonomy – having a sense of control in our lives. Feedback is critical for meeting these basic human drivers. Done well, it can lead to growth and engagement. Done poorly, it can be devastating. My passion is helping leaders master this skill and enable workplaces to truly be places of growth, development and human flourishing.
