As the President and CEO of Goldwater Ventures, I have always been fascinated by the precision, dedication, and effectiveness of the U.S. Navy SEAL Team 6. This admiration and my experience as a U.S. Navy veteran inspired me to develop a unique management style for organizations needing transformative change: the "SIG Team 6" Principle. This principle is rooted in my belief that a small, committed group of individuals can drive significant change within any organization.


SIG, standing for Social Impact Group, revolves around a simple yet powerful concept: a team of six respected and hard-working individuals who are strategic planners and astute executors. These six people are chosen not just for their capabilities but also for their collective synergy and commitment to the mission. They embody the ethos of operators who can bring about transformational change.


The cornerstone of the SIG Team 6 Principle lies in the meticulous selection of these six members. Each individual is a well-regarded contributor within the organization, known for their work ethic and integrity. They can sit around the table, articulate the mission, strategize the plan, and, most importantly, implement new policies and procedures. Their deep understanding of the mission and their ability to communicate it effectively sets the foundation for transformative change.


These six members are chosen for their ability to build and maintain excellent relationships across all levels of staff. Their impeccable reputations act as a catalyst, fostering trust and openness in communication. This trust is crucial as it allows for the free flow of ideas, concerns, and feedback, essential elements in any transformation process.


The SIG Team 6 operates on collective responsibility and shared leadership. Each member is equally accountable for the initiative's success, and their diverse perspectives and skills complement each other, creating a robust and dynamic team capable of overcoming any obstacle. This team doesn’t just plan; they lead by example, becoming the agents of change within the organization.


Implementing the SIG Team 6 Principle requires a cultural shift within the organization. It demands an environment where open communication, mutual respect, and shared goals are the norm. It's about creating a space where these six individuals can thrive and lead the organization toward its transformative goals.


We have witnessed a remarkable impact as we have applied the SIG Team 6 Principle at Goldwater Ventures. It has enabled us to approach challenges swiftly, make precise decisions, and execute plans excellently. The principle is a testament to the power of collective effort and strategic execution in driving meaningful change.


In conclusion, the SIG Team 6 Principle is more than just a management style; it’s a philosophy that encapsulates the essence of teamwork, leadership, and transformation. It’s a principle that has the potential to revolutionize the way organizations approach change, making it more strategic, inclusive, and effective.
