Projects. The Future of Money on vimeoin collaboration with KS12about In 2010, I approached via twitter and asked to come speak at SIBOS, “the world’s premiere financial services event.” I teamed up with a creative studio in Berlin (KS12), and we made a video to present at the conference. We conducted skype-based interviews with participants in America, England, Sweden, Mexico, Germany and Thailand. The idea was to kickstart a larger conversation about the future of money and value, and the possibilities within a peer-to-peer economy.

I recently came across this TEDx video by David Logan talking about the five tribal stages and was glad on discovering another confirmation to my stage theoretic model. Dave along with King and Haleee have also written a book titled “Tribal Leadership” which summarizes their research, their tribal leadership model and how corporates and other organizations can move from one tribal stage to another.

As their theoretical background they have rhetorics, organizational theory and chaos theory and they view ‘culture as a self-correcting system of language’. This needs a bit of elaboration. What they mean is that the day to day language we use in our workplace or tribes and our relationships with other members of the tribes (behavior) is indicative of the stage at which the tribe is functioning. Stage 1: Despairing Hostility :“Life sucks”: If people at Stage One had T-shirts, they would read “life sucks,” and what comes out of their mouths support this adage.

Rating: 0.0/10 (0 votes cast) A Step-by-Step Guide to Tribal Leadership: Part 1: The Five Stages of Tribal Culture. This is a review of Tribal Leadership. much of the content of this post is taken directly from the book Birds flock, fish school, people “tribe.” I just finished reading Tribal Leadership by Dave Logan, an amazing book that teaches how to build a better organization in which the best people want to work and make an impact.

The book is based on a 10-year research study with 24,000 people across two dozen organizations from around the world. A tribe is a group of 20 to 150 people who know one another enough that, if they saw another walking down the street, would stop and say “hello.” What makes the tribe more effective than others is its culture. Culture is a product of the language people use (words create reality), and the behaviors that accompany those words. Tribal Leaders are the people who focus their efforts on upgrading the tribal culture. They set the standard of performance in their industries, from productivity and profitability to employee retention, and attract talent. It says, Tribe. There are an estimated one hundred and fifty million tribal individuals worldwide,[2] constituting around forty percent of indigenous individuals.

Although nearly all tribal people are indigenous, some are not indigenous to the areas where they now live. The distinction between tribal and indigenous is important because tribal peoples have a special status acknowledged in international law. They often face particular issues in addition to those faced by the wider category of indigenous peoples.

Many people used the term "tribal society" to refer to societies organized largely on the basis of social, especially familial, descent groups (see clan and kinship). "Tribe" is a contested term due to its roots of being defined by outsiders during the period of colonialism. Etymology[edit] In 242–240 BC, the Tribal Assembly (comitia tributa) in the Roman Republic included 35 tribes (four "urban tribes" and 31 "rural tribes"). Tribes and states[edit] See also[edit] Notes[edit] References[edit] Tribalism. Tribalism is the state of being organized in, or advocating for, a tribe or tribes. In terms of conformity, tribalism may also refer in popular cultural terms to a way of thinking or behaving in which people are more loyal to their tribe than to their friends, their country, or any other social group.[1] Tribalism has been defined in engaged theory as a 'formation of being' based upon variable combinations of kinship-based organization, reciprocal exchange, manual production, oral communication, and analogical enquiry.[2] Ontologically, it is oriented around the valences of analogy, genealogy and mythology.

The social structure of a tribe can vary greatly from case to case, but, due to the small size of tribes, it is usually involves a relatively undifferentiated role structure, with few significant political or economic distinctions between individuals.[3] Tribalism and violence[edit] The anthropological debate on warfare among tribes is unsettled. Tribalism and evolution[edit] The Tipping Point. The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference is the debut book by Malcolm Gladwell, first published by Little Brown in 2000. The three rules[edit] Malcolm Gladwell describes the "three rules of epidemics" (or the three "agents of change") in the tipping points of epidemics.

The Law of the Few[edit] "The Law of the Few", or, as Malcolm Gladwell states, "The success of any kind of social epidemic is heavily dependent on the involvement of people with a particular and rare set of social gifts".[3] According to Malcolm Gladwell, economists call this the "80/20 Principle, which is the idea that in any situation roughly 80 percent of the 'work' will be done by 20 percent of the participants".[4] (see Pareto Principle) These people are described in the following ways: Connectors are the people in a community who know large numbers of people and who are in the habit of making introductions. A connector is essentially the social equivalent of a computer network hub. Reception[edit]
