Futuristic Leadership
Quantum (Porter-O’Grady & Malloch, 2015)
• Accepts two realities, mystery, potential
• Futurist thinker, fluid thinker, synthesis thinker
• Understands the realm of potential reality, and
is in the “between” of actual and potential
reality
• It is a transformational model using economics
sociopolitical, and technical driving forces.
Futuristic Leadership
Integral (Eclectic, Wilber, Graves, Beck & Cowen, Ondrejka)
• Has two tiers for cultural realities, values, and
movement.
• First tier has five + cultural norms where
groups congregate for shared values, realities,
practices, and purpose in life.
• Second tier is transformative using holistic,
integrative, fluid, and multiple reality thinking.
• Second tier thinking is Integral Leadership that
is capable of working with all levels.
Futuristic models have blind spots
and are hard to understand
Our Subconsciousis hidden, but still
controls our thinking—Even if it is not accurate. This is the struggle toward Integral Leadership

Knowing Your Authentic Self—
Key to Integral Leaders
What would be your self- assessment if
➢ You took the red pill?
➢ You took the blue pill?
➢ You chose to do neither?
➢ How does it match your opinion
of others choosing these
different responses?
Knowing Your Bias—
Key to Integral Leaders
What do you think of other people’s decisions?
➢ What is your opinion of those who
decided to metaphorically take the red
pill?
➢ What is your opinion of those who
chose the blue pill?
➢ What is your opinion of those who
chose not to do either?
•Level 3 – energy & power (red)
This is the level of divide and conquer in which the hierarchical power structure is central. There is an enemy to fight, and killing can be an answer. People are part of a system and are directed by the highest power-holder. All social relationships are power-oriented and occasionally a new order in hierarchy takes place.
Characteristics: Communication is purely top-down. There is continuous supervision of higher levels at lower levels. Orders are only effective if there are sanctions or serious reprisal. Logic and persuasion are therefore not addressed.

•Level 4 – order (blue)
This is the level of the conventional society, which establishes what is right and
wrong. Established conventions and traditions are honored and rules,
procedures, and structures are strictly adhered to. At this level, the concept of
deferred reward occurs for the first time: if you do your best, you will be
rewarded later.
Characteristics: Communication takes place from high to low and horizontally.
The control freak needs to know what needs to be done. Consistent
communication is very important. Intuition or feelings are less important
•Level 5 – success / science (orange)
This is the ideal of the individualistic capitalist society. The truth lies in logical reasoning and (empirical) research, after which the correct conclusion is left. People perceive themselves as individuals. In this level, everything revolves around success. Power equals prestige and position within the structure, which is acquired by successful operation.
Characteristics: Communication in this level takes place from high to low, low to high and horizontally. People are interested in each other and want to know whether it will positively impact their career. Communication is often focused on negotiation.
•Level 6 – community (green)
Green is the level of humanity and the social network, in which man is
interested in inner peace and peace with others. In this level, people attach
great importance to their social environment and little to their own status.
People make decisions as a group, but each individual must be able to develop
fully. There is a liberalism tone to the green communities.
Characteristics: there is a lot of communication in all directions, where the
emphasis is on reaching a consensus. There is also sensitivity to emotions
and the needs of others.
•Second Tier– synergy / Holistic (yellow)
At this level, it is about system thinking; realizing that everything is interconnected. Tolerance is the key word in this. People work together in a system in which they make their own decisions.This makes it possible to work on a project basis. Integral Actions.Characteristics: Communication takes place as needed, and it is important that information gets to the right place and is easily accessible. Think about management information systems.Who are Second Tier People??????
You?Second Tier people can work with any group, at any level. They
understand the value of all levels, AND the dark side of each.
Firs
This is the highest level. It is a holistic living system in which the world is seen as an interactive, interconnected system. At this level, energy is focused on sacrifice. Trust is placed in people, not so much in a higher power as one who intervenes. People are organizing themselves in order to cherish and renew the world from macro level.Characteristics: Communication is important in all layers; consensus and competence are merged for the benefit of the public good.

How could you
negotiate from
a place of
understanding
What do they
need or what is
the value that
does not violate
who you are.
Find someone or
an idea you
CANNOT tolerate
What is the value
of this person’s
actions, or idea?
Practice Second Tier as an Integral Leader
A storm is coming that demands more from leaders. Are we able to make a shift to see what is
best for those we work with?
How are you doing
