Focus on the Organization

A pre-Conference 2007 Workshop
Monday, July 16th, 2007 8:30am to 4:30pm
BMO Financial Group Institute for Learning
Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Spiral Dynamics is based on the seminal work of Professor Clare W. Graves, Union College, New York. I first started working with Professor Graves in l975 and have played the major role in both introducing his conceptual world, and in extending his basic research in the areas of organizational design and geopolitical transformations.
Because the model, known as Spiral Dynamics, addresses the deep value system DNA-type codes at the core of companies and communities, it offers a dynamic model for both design and change of these human groupings.
Most of my early work dealt specifically with applications in business, education and government. During the long South African initiative (63 visits to Johannesburg) I was deeply involved in practically every major business in that country.
This is when I first encountered the word of Gillian Stamp and her colleagues in bioss who were, at that time, quite active in a number of major industries. We found common cause in blending the two technologies, since each offers a unique perspective on getting systems set right in terms of both functions and specific role within the organization.
Spiral Dynamics, in many ways, appears to operate at a deeper conceptual level to offer evidence for the levels that Elliott Jaques and Gillian Stamp had identified, so becomes an effective selection and placement methodology.

Workshop Benefits & Learnings:
You will see that the specific application of Spiral Dynamics will introduce a CultureSCAN instrument that is now being used in a number of major corporate structures in the United States and Europe.
Further, because of our focus on what is called "Natural Design", we will extend the application into virtually every area of corporate life, from selection to placement to marketing to management and even to interface with various stakeholders within the organizational loop.
We will feature such applications as in Whole Foods Market (with John Mackey) to transformational elements in IBM.
