The main notes of Tribal Leadership:
tribes are the organizing unit of human
culture is the driving force, and can be observed though the language people use and the relationship structures they have.
Stage 1: "life sucks", no relationships - gangs, prison, essentially you get ahead by taking advantage of people who don't realize life sucks.
Stage 2: "my life sucks", diads - if only some oppressive power authority would change, my life would be better. form diads and complain about the boss, etc.
Stage 3: "i'm great", hub & spoke - rockstar with supporting cast; top achievers; political orgs; win at all costs.
Stage 4: "we're great", triads - relationships organized around values and competency and working to advance people into Stage 4 consciousness.
Stage 5: "life is great", org flow. - when a majority of people in a tribe are in Stage 4, they will pulse into Stage 5 organically, no competition at this level, solving new problems, in flow with life itself.
- stego-tech 2y agoYeah, that's about what I speculated from the book's title and what little description I got from the thread. It feels very natural and organic, but also personal if that makes sense? Like, I've mostly pulled away from any of the S2's in my life, my unorthodox home/familial unit is S4, and work feels like a mix of S4 teams railing and struggling against S3 leaders and their S2 followers. It's a good "cliche system" to help simplify the complex power dynamic strata in a large organization. I dig it!

And you’ll grow in the process as you own & integrate your own earlier states. It’s the foundation of our leadership development work at EarthPilot.org
