Be Energy Aware
™
Be Energy Aware™ is a CoreShift™ philosophy that helps leaders and teams notice the energy they bring and the energy they invite. It’s the front door to Work Day Awareness® - where awareness becomes performance.
The Be Energy Aware™ mindset begins with a simple truth: awareness changes performance before metrics ever can.
What It Means to Be Energy Aware™
Be Energy Aware™ isn’t about saving electricity. It’s about how you show up. It’s about noticing the energy you bring - and the energy you invite - in every interaction, meeting, and decision.
At CoreShift™, this principle sits at the heart of the Work Day Awareness® movement. It’s where leadership, culture, and personal accountability meet through a proprietary approach we call Energy Dynamics™ - a methodology that explores how awareness translates into impact.

Why It Matters
Energy is the leading indicator of performance.
Metrics and dashboards show what’s already happened. Energy shows what’s coming next.
When teams become energy aware, they start to see early signals - how momentum builds, how clarity fades, how engagement flows or stalls. Those signals are the starting point for every meaningful change.
“Output is what you see. Energy is what you lead.”
That simple shift defines the CoreShift philosophy: awareness before action.
How It Works
Certified Work Day Awareness® practitioners use the Energy Dynamics™ methodology to help leaders and teams identify energy patterns and turn them into practical, sustainable shifts.
While the full methodology is reserved for practitioners, the first step is universal:
Notice. Name. Shift.
Even small awareness rituals - pausing before a meeting, noticing what energizes or drains you — can change the tone of a workday.
The Energy Awareness Pyramid™
Awareness grows in layers. The Energy Awareness Pyramid™ illustrates how energy shapes the way we think, participate, and show up throughout the workday.
It’s part of the public Work Day Awareness® philosophy - showing that real performance starts long before the metrics.
At its simplest, the pyramid helps people see that energy is dynamic, not fixed. When we begin noticing it, we start changing how we engage, lead, and connect.
