Description

Summary by Sofia Bustamante and Mamading Ceesay:

"Mindset – the overarching narrative of the inner dialogue of the person.

Level 1 – the world is dangerous. It’s f***ed. I have to fight to survive.

Level 2 – the world can be great for others. But not for me.

Level 3 – the world can be great for me. But I must hide my weaknesses and it’s a competitive world. I’m on my own. Somehow, no one is ready, willing or able to help me, so I can only rely on myself.

Level 4 – the world can be great for us – for our organisation/team/community. Let’s not get stuck in my or your individual agenda. There’s no I in team. It’s all about We not Me, the sum is greater than the parts and we can all get our needs met by working together. (Zappos)

Level 5 – the world can be great for everyone (Nelson Mandela, Buckminster Fuller)

Please note that this is a very over-generalized summary of the model, please refer to Tribal Leadership by Dave Logan and Ron King for a full exposition.

Interestingly this scale matches another scale from a different domain – that of the Japanese martial art Aikido."
