Spiral Dynamics


About Spiral Dynamics

The following is from external link Disinformation - expanded spiral dynamics® bibliography by Alex Burns

"...external link Spiral Dynamics® [is a] meta-model ("a model about other models") of evolving perceptual, thinking and values systems within people, groups, organizations, nations and subcultures.

This research originally derived from the psychologist external link Clare W. Graves, and has been spearheaded by two students, external link Dr. Don Beck and external link Chris Cowan....The best source for this meta-model, while not a "quick" read (which the authors admit), is Beck and Cowan's book Spiral Dynamics: Mastering Values, Leadership and Change (Oxford: Blackwell Publishers, 1996)...

There are several other Gravesian interpretations around, notably by Jenny Wade and an introductory overview that discusses more "real-world" applications within Ken Wilber's "Wilber-4" model (I always advise people to utilize Beck and Cowan's book first, to appreciate SD's full scope). A pdf mini-course was recently posted in Adobe Acrobat PDF, by Chris Cowan and Natasha Todorovic, his colleague.

Spiral Dynamics® has also been featured at the external link World Future Society conclave, and has been successfully applied within Fortune 500 companies, to resolve geopolitical crises (such as South Africa's transition to a post-apartheid society), sporting teams, and to revitalize local communities."

Chris Cowan has since broken from Don Beck, and external link strongly disagrees with Beck and Wilber's use of the Spiral Dynamics Model
