Spiral Dynamics Harald Hutterer
Spiral Dynamics - Basics • Clare W. Graves (1914 – 1986) “Briefly, what I am proposing is that the psychology of the mature human being is an unfolding, emergent, oscillating, spiraling process, marked by progressive subordination of older, lower-order behavior systems to newer, higher-order systems as man’s existential problems change.” • A meme is an idea, behavior or style that spreads from person to person within a culture. • vMeme refers to a core value system, acting as an organizing principle, which expresses itself through memes (self-propagating ideas, habits, or cultural practices).
Individuals and mankind • Each individual over his/her lifetime moves somehow along the spiral. • Humanity as a whole has been and is still moving along the same spiral.
Important issues • Transcendandinclude • Move fromfirsttosecondtier (oreventhird) • Healthyandpathological • Center of gravity
