Seeking Deeper Understanding #004

SDTEST® has 28 different VUCA polls that calculate the 9,191 correlation values between stages of development according to the theory of Spiral Dynamics and answer options of these 28 polls.


We invite curiosity about the systemic mechanisms behind this correlation. There may be hidden variables that provide alternative explanations.


In our analysis of the poll "What actions have been taken in relation to staff in the last month (fact, %)?" we found an intriguing positive correlation that warrants closer examination:  


0.0856 between The employees were sent on unpaid vacation and the Purple stage. 


The critical value of the correlation coefficient for a normal distribution, by William Sealy Gosset (Student) r = 0.077. This positive correlation of 0.0856 meets the reliability criteria but does not necessarily imply causation.



This positive correlation of 0.0856 initially seems counterintuitive given the Purple value system's in-group solid loyalty and protection of shared resources for survival. However, it connects to a deeper deference to authority within customary communities.


If the chief or council decrees specific austerity measures in lean times, Purple psychology likely accepts this even at a high cost - their destinies intertwine with group continuity. Likewise, in organizations, those identifying with Purple submit to hardships if sanctified by higher-ups upholding more profound traditions tying social fabric.  


However, bitterness can arise if belts tighten unfairly across the hierarchy. And if adversity persists too long without spiritual meaning, resignation may displace sacrifice. 



In our analysis of the poll "Why do people procrastinate?" we found an intriguing positive correlation that warrants closer examination:  


0.0928 between the Fear of Failure: Apprehension or anxiety about failing or not meeting expectations, leading to avoidance of tasks / Highly Applicable and the Red stage. 


The critical value of the correlation coefficient for a non-normal distribution, by Spearman r = 0.0037. This positive correlation of 0.0928 meets the reliability criteria but does not necessarily imply causation.



This positive correlation of 0.0928 makes sense, given the Red drive for glory and aversion toward shame. Those perceiving life through a Red lens are wired for triumph, conquest, and competitive advantage. The prospect of embarrassment through defeat thus evokes avoidance behaviors rather than courageous persistence in facing daunting odds.


The existential fighter instinct within Red psychology springs from a profound need to establish independence and respect through displays of raw power and daring. Failure risks a crisis of self-worth and regression back into suffocating hierarchies one must transcend at all costs.


And while fear of disgrace may paralyze, some harness it to fuel ruthless preparation. 



In our analysis of the poll "XING's culture assessment" (Strategic direction. Imagine a great employer - which aspects do you like the most?), we found an intriguing negative correlation that warrants closer examination:  


-0.2136 between The company is willing to experiment and Blue stage. 


The critical value of the correlation coefficient for a normal distribution, by William Sealy Gosset (Student) r = 0.1696. This negative correlation of -0.2136 meets the reliability criteria but does not necessarily imply causation.  



This negative correlation of -0.2136 reveals an interesting tension within Blue orderliness - while stability and continuity of moral authority provide meaning, openness to experimentation risks undermining the very bindings that sustain society. Thus Blue thinking leans away from unauthorized change.


The Blue quest for purpose finds answers in the certainty of structures and rituals legitimized from on high. Questioning core tenets contradicts the entire worldview. Customs must be scrupulously maintained, as transformation may degrade the very fabric Blue psychology depends upon.


Yet history shows that even hardened traditionalism changes gradually when disconnects from emerging realities grow too great. Thus Blue may tolerate some reform when functioning suffers. The correlation hints that outright “experimentation” sounds too untethered, but modest evolution ensures social coherence. 



In our analysis of the poll "Meritocracy" (Are employees encouraged to take ownership of their work, make decisions, and take the initiative rather than relying on top-down directives?), we found an intriguing positive correlation that warrants closer examination:  


0.24 between the YES, take ownership of their work, make decisions, and take the initiative and the Orange stage.


The critical value of the correlation coefficient for a normal distribution, by William Sealy Gosset (Student) r = 0.1154. This positive correlation of 0.24 meets the reliability criteria but does not necessarily imply causation. 



This positive correlation of 0.24 makes sense given the Orange drive toward innovation and efficiency through decentralized competence and meritocratic autonomy. Those identifying with Orange aim to structure organizations and incentives in ways that align authority with the ability demonstrated through results.


Thus, Orange thinkers advocate pushing decision rights outward to those closest to operational reality, equipping them with data-driven accountability to excel. Such entrepreneurial initiatives unlock closer responsiveness, meeting customer needs and seizing market opportunities. It also boosts engagement as talent feels trusted through empowerment tied directly to their performance.



In our analysis of the poll "Empathy is...", we found an intriguing positive correlation that warrants closer examination:  


0.1226 between the Mirroring someone's feelings / Strongly Agree and the Green stage. 


The critical value of the correlation coefficient for a normal distribution, by William Sealy Gosset (Student) r = 0.096. This positive correlation of 0.1226 meets the reliability criteria but does not necessarily imply causation.



This positive correlation of 0.1226 resonates with the Green worldview's orientation toward emotional attunement and socially coherent relationships. Seeing life through a lens of interconnectedness, Green psychology recognizes empathic mirroring as integral for mutual understanding and collective action.


The Green drive for communal harmony flows from an expansive sense of identity interdependently linked across widening circles of being. Thus, taking time to reflect on others’ subjective experiences not only builds bonds between individuals but also strengthens the social fabric more broadly. It fuels unity through resonance.


However, hurt can emerge if struggles remain merely mirrored without agentic empowerment. And some Green plurality harbors inner tensions between shared feelings and divergent needs. Perhaps mature Green empathy involves the balanced exchange of both resonance and wisdom over time. 



In our analysis of the poll "What makes people successful at work?" we found an intriguing negative correlation that warrants closer examination:  


-0.0494 between the Honesty and the Yellow stage.


The critical value of the correlation coefficient for a normal distribution, by William Sealy Gosset (Student) r = 0.0444. This negative correlation -0.0494 meets the reliability criteria but does not necessarily imply causation.



This negative correlation of -0.0494 prompts critical reflection about integrity and success, sometimes holding creative tension within Yellow's developmental wisdom. 


While later stages transcend and include healthy expressions of previous tiers, Shadow manifestations also emerge. Perhaps aspects of Yellow thinking subtly justify benevolent dishonesty, falling prey to "ends justify means" rationalization in its integrative idealism.


Cross-cultural variability in defining "honesty" may explain part of this correlation. Systemic injustices likely pressure some ethical compromise amid imperfect conditions before integral structures mature.



In our analysis of the poll "What qualities and abilities do good leaders use when building successful teams?" we found an intriguing positive correlation that warrants closer examination:  


0.1147 between the Active listener and the Turquoise stage. 


The critical value of the correlation coefficient for a normal distribution, by William Sealy Gosset (Student) r = 0.0445. This positive correlation of 0.1147 meets the reliability criteria but does not necessarily imply causation. 



This positive correlation of 0.1147 between active listening and the turquoise value system is meaningful. It speaks to the turquoise orientation towards deep connection, empathy, and understanding between all aspects of life. At the core is a recognition that we are all part of an interconnected web, so listening carefully and compassionately to all voices is crucial.  


We tap into our shared humanity when we listen openly, without judgment. We move past surface differences into deeper realms where we can appreciate each other's intrinsic worth. In this space, creativity and innovation flourish through synthesis and integration. New solutions emerge that benefit all.


At Turquoise, leadership is less about asserting one's own agenda and more about facilitating collective understanding. It's about creating contexts where each person feels heard and valued to reinforce our interdependence. With mindful listening, we can co-create sustainable structures that honor both human needs and environmental balance.


This correlation reminds us that receptive listening and embracing interconnectivity can nourish communities. By tuning into each other with care and wisdom, we build the foundations for a just, compassionate, holistic society.
