Spiral Dynamics for Organizations

A human development model that helps navigate the increasing complexity of work.

What is Spiral Dynamics?

Spiral Dynamics is a model of human development that maps the growth and evolution of individuals, groups, and humanity over time.

Whether we are looking through the lens of history, philosophy, psychology, or biology, it has been shown that evolution happens in sudden leaps.

Spiral Dynamics gives each leap a new stage name and color, clearly distinguishing it from the beliefs and way of being that preceded it. Each new stage provides a completely new perspective which naturally shifts the way humans organize themselves and interact with one another.

We have reason to believe that humanity is currently making a new leap.

The outdated ways that we are handling today’s global challenges are causing an increasing amount of pain and dysfunction. Learning Spiral Dynamics can help your organization be better equipped with knowledge, language, and tools to better navigate the inherent complexity that comes with massive change.
