Tribal leadership model

The Tribal Leadership model explains how organizations function through social groups, or "tribes," each with its own culture and level of social development. These tribes range from competitive and self-focused to collaborative and purpose-driven. The model identifies five stages of tribal culture, guiding organizations on improving communication, collaboration, and performance by fostering higher-stage tribes. Essentially, it emphasizes that workplace culture and leadership are deeply rooted in the collective mindset of these tribes, and by nurturing more advanced cultural stages, organizations can thrive and innovate more effectively.
