Moses Ting's inspiration notebook.
Just finished reading Tribal Leadership, and excited to have learned a bit of organizational knowledge. According to the book, there are 5 stages of a tribe:
- Alienated - Life sucks
- Separate - My life sucks
- Personal - I’m great
- Partnership - We’re great
- Team - Life’s great
The trick is to recognize where your tribe (e.g. team, company, group, etc…) is currently, and try to elevate it, stage by stage, to the greatness of stages 4 and 5. Definitely easier said than done, but it’s worthwhile if you and your team want to do something significant in the world. I’m looking forward to seeing how this can be applied in my own personal organizational settings at LinkedIn.
