Seeking Deeper Understanding #031

SDTEST® has 36 different VUCA polls that calculate the 13,034 correlation values between stages of development according to the theory of Spiral Dynamics and answer options of these 36 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 "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team" (by Patrick Lencioni), we found an intriguing positive correlation that warrants closer examination:  


0.3176 between the Avoidance of Accountability (Holding peers accountable is necessary for team success. Avoidance can lead to declining standards) and the Purple stage (Germany, three languages). 

The critical value of the correlation coefficient for a non-normal distribution, by Spearman r = 0.1938. This positive correlation of 0.3176 meets the reliability criteria but does not necessarily imply causation.


This positive correlation of 0.3176 between Avoidance of Accountability and the Purple stage in Germany reveals that as Purple value system tendencies increase, the Avoidance of Accountability also increases. Through the lens of the Purple value system, considering the German cultural context:

Organizational Perspective:


Organizations operating within the Purple mindset in Germany might interpret this correlation as:
  1. This is a sign that as their connection to traditional German values strengthens, there's a corresponding increase in reluctance to hold individuals directly accountable.
  2. This indicates that stronger adherence to ancestral ways coincides with a greater tendency to avoid confrontation within the group.
  3. A mystical alignment between deepening communal bonds and increasing difficulty in addressing individual responsibilities.
These organizations might respond by:
  • Consulting with spiritual leaders to understand why a stronger tribal identity accompanies more significant accountability avoidance.
  • Performing rituals to appease ancestral spirits, believing this might help balance the need for both tradition and accountability.
  • Reinforcing communal storytelling that emphasizes both group harmony and individual responsibility to the tribe.

Team Perspective:


Teams operating from a Purple mindset in German contexts might approach this correlation by:
  1. Recognizing that their team's connection to local traditions grows stronger, so does their tendency to avoid direct accountability.
  2. Interpreting that deeper immersion in regional identity corresponds with increased difficulty in addressing performance issues.
  3. Seeing that stronger group cohesion aligns with greater reluctance to risk social harmony through accountability measures.
These teams might respond by:
  • Creating new team symbols that represent both their traditional values and the importance of accountability.
  • Establishing accountability practices that invoke the wisdom of respected German historical figures known for both community leadership and personal integrity.
  • Sharing stories illustrating ancestral heroes maintained group harmony while upholding individual responsibilities.

Individual Perspective:


Individuals aligned with the Purple value system in Germany might interpret this correlation as:
  1. A personal realization that as they embrace traditional values more deeply, they find it harder to hold peers accountable.
  2. An insight that stronger feelings of belonging to the group correspond with increased discomfort in addressing others' shortcomings.
  3. Recognizing their growing connection to communal identity aligns with a greater tendency to avoid potentially disruptive accountability conversations.
These individuals might respond by:
  • Seeking elders' guidance on balancing respect for tradition with the need for personal accountability.
  • Engaging in personal rituals that reinforce both their commitment to the group and their responsibilities.
  • Reflecting on how their ancestors might have maintained social harmony while ensuring each member fulfilled their duties.

This positive correlation, viewed through the Purple lens in a German context, suggests that as individuals and groups more strongly embody Purple value system characteristics, they simultaneously show a greater tendency to avoid accountability. It implies that the more deeply people connect with traditional German values, communal identity, and ancestral wisdom, the more challenging they find engaging in direct peer-to-peer accountability, as described in "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team."

Ultimately, this positive correlation speaks to the complex interplay between German cultural identity, team dynamics, and accountability practices. It reminds us that in the Purple worldview within Germany, more vital adherence to traditional values and communal norms corresponds with more significant challenges in implementing modern accountability practices. This insight can guide organizations and teams in developing culturally sensitive approaches to overcoming the Avoidance of Accountability dysfunction.


In our analysis of the poll "21 skills that pay you forever" (by Jeremiah Teo / 赵汉昇 [1]), we found an intriguing negative correlation that warrants closer examination:  


-0.2378 between the Ability to understand what others feel / Strongly Agree and the Red stage. 

The critical value of the correlation coefficient for a normal distribution, by William Sealy Gosset (Student) r = 0.1671. This negative correlation of -0.2378 meets the reliability criteria but does not necessarily imply causation. 


This negative correlation of -0.2378 between strongly agreeing with the ability to understand what others feel and the Red stage offers intriguing insights when viewed through the lens of the Red value system:

Organizational Perspective:


Organizations operating within the Red mindset might interpret this correlation as:
  1. Validation of their power-driven approach, viewing empathy as a potential weakness.
  2. An opportunity to leverage their lack of concern for others' feelings as a competitive advantage.
  3. Justification for prioritizing assertiveness and dominance over emotional understanding.

These organizations might respond by:
  • Implementing aggressive strategies that prioritize immediate gains over stakeholder feelings.
  • Rewarding employees who demonstrate ruthless efficiency rather than emotional intelligence.
  • Marketing their brand as unapologetically bold and self-serving, appealing to like-minded customers.

Team Perspective:


Teams operating from a Red mindset might approach this correlation by:
  1. Viewing it as confirmation that focusing on others' feelings hinders their ability to assert dominance.
  2. Interpreting it as a license to pursue team goals without concern for emotional consequences.
  3. Seeing it as an opportunity to outperform more empathetic teams through raw aggression.
These teams might respond by:
  • Encouraging cut-throat competition within the team to drive performance.
  • Dismissing or marginalizing team members who show concern for others' emotions.
  • Celebrating instances where the team's assertiveness led to victories over competitors.

Individual Perspective:


Individuals aligned with the Red value system might interpret this correlation as:
  1. Personal validation of their self-centered approach to interactions.
  2. An opportunity to assert dominance by disregarding others' emotional states.
  3. Justification for pursuing personal desires without considering others' feelings.
These individuals might respond by:
  • Seeking ways to exploit others' emotional vulnerabilities for personal gain.
  • Boasting about their ability to achieve goals without being hindered by empathy.
  • Actively cultivating a reputation for being tough and uncompromising.

This negative correlation, viewed through the Red lens, suggests that those operating at the Red level may see understanding others' feelings as irrelevant or counterproductive to their goals. It implies that the Red value system's impulsiveness, self-centeredness, and desire for immediate gratification align with a dismissive attitude toward emotional intelligence.

Ultimately, this correlation shows the complex relationship between human values and emotional intelligence. It reminds us that in the Red worldview, the potential for immediate power and self-gratification may outweigh considerations of others' emotional states or long-term relational consequences. This insight could be leveraged by those in the Red value system to double down on their aggressive strategies, viewing the lack of empathy as a strength rather than a limitation.


In our analysis of the poll "Actions of companies in relation to personnel in the last month (fact, %)," we found an intriguing positive correlation that warrants closer examination:  


0.6274 between The employees who were transferred to remote work without staff reduction and the Blue stage (France, two languages). 

The critical value of the correlation coefficient for a normal distribution, by William Sealy Gosset (Student) r = 0.6058. This positive correlation of 0.6274 meets the reliability criteria but does not necessarily imply causation. 


This positive correlation of 0.6274 between employees transferred to remote work without staff reduction and the Blue stage in France offers significant insights when viewed through the lens of the Blue value system:

Organizational Perspective:


Organizations operating within the Blue mindset might interpret this correlation as:
  1. A validation of their commitment to maintaining order and stability during challenging times.
  2. An affirmation of their duty to preserve jobs while adhering to new regulations and societal needs.
  3. A sign that their structured approach to change management aligns with higher moral principles.

These organizations might respond by:
  • Implementing detailed protocols for remote work to maintain order and productivity.
  • Emphasizing the importance of loyalty and duty in company communications about remote work.
  • Establishing clear hierarchies and reporting structures within the new remote work environment.

Team Perspective:


Teams operating from a Blue mindset might approach this correlation by:
  1. Viewing it as confirmation that their disciplined approach to work transcends physical location.
  2. Interpreting it as a call to uphold team traditions and norms in the remote setting.
  3. Seeing it as an opportunity to demonstrate their commitment to organizational values and goals.
These teams might respond by:
  • Creating strict schedules and routines for remote work to mirror in-office discipline.
  • Establishing clear codes of conduct for virtual meetings and communication.
  • Reinforcing team roles and responsibilities to maintain hierarchy in the remote environment.

Individual Perspective:


Individuals aligned with the Blue value system might interpret this correlation as:
  1. Personal validation of their ability to adapt to new circumstances while maintaining their sense of duty.
  2. An opportunity to demonstrate loyalty to their organization by embracing remote work efficiently.
  3. A test of their discipline and adherence to moral codes in a less supervised environment.
These individuals might respond by:
  • Strictly following company guidelines for remote work, viewing it as a moral obligation.
  • Seeking ways to maintain traditional work practices in the home environment.
  • Judging colleagues who seem less committed to maintaining work standards remotely.

This correlation, viewed through the Blue lens, suggests that those operating at the Blue level in France have successfully transferred their structured, rule-based approach to a remote work setting. It implies that the Blue value system's characteristics of order, discipline, and duty align well with the ability to maintain workforce stability through remote work arrangements.

Ultimately, this correlation speaks to the resilience of Blue value system principles in the face of significant workplace changes. It reminds us that adherence to rules, respect for authority, and a strong sense of responsibility in the Blue worldview can provide a stable foundation for adapting to new work paradigms. Blue-oriented organizations could leverage This insight to reinforce their values and maintain order even when embracing necessary changes.

This positive correlation of 0.5637 between own attractiveness and the Green stage in Germany, in the context of gender differences in building self-confidence, offers intriguing insights when viewed through the lens of the Green value system:


Organizational Perspective:


Organizations operating within the Green mindset might interpret this correlation as:

  1. An opportunity to address systemic gender inequalities in self-confidence and attractiveness perceptions.
  2. A call to examine how societal structures in Germany might differently impact men's and women's self-image.
  3. An invitation to create more inclusive environments that foster self-confidence regardless of gender.

These organizations might respond by:

  • Initiating cross-gender dialogue sessions to explore the roots of self-confidence disparities in German culture.
  • Developing policies that challenge gender-based beauty standards and promote diverse forms of attractiveness.
  • Implementing mentorship programs that support underrepresented genders in building self-confidence.


Team Perspective:


Teams operating from a Green mindset might approach this correlation by:

  1. Viewing it as a prompt to create a more gender-inclusive team culture that supports equal confidence-building.
  2. Interpreting it as an opportunity to explore how team dynamics might reinforce or challenge gender-based self-perceptions.
  3. Seeing it as a catalyst for discussing how gender roles in German society influence workplace confidence.

These teams might respond by:

  • Facilitating open discussions about gender-specific pressures related to attractiveness and self-confidence in Germany.
  • Implementing collaborative projects that celebrate each member's unique qualities, regardless of gender.
  • Developing team practices that consciously counteract gender biases in confidence-building and self-perception.


Individual Perspective:


Individuals aligned with the Green value system might interpret this correlation as:

  1. A reflection on how their gender identity influences their self-perception within German society.
  2. An opportunity to challenge personal biases about gender roles and attractiveness.
  3. A prompt to explore how their own confidence levels might be shaped by societal expectations in Germany.

These individuals might respond by:

  • Engaging in self-reflection practices that explore the relationship between gender, attractiveness, and self-confidence.
  • Seeking out diverse perspectives on gender and attractiveness in Germany to broaden their understanding.
  • Initiating community discussions or projects that promote gender equality in self-confidence and body positivity.


This correlation, viewed through the Green lens, suggests a complex interplay between gender, self-perception, and societal values in Germany. As individuals progress towards a more holistic, community-oriented worldview (Green stage), they may develop a more positive self-image. Still, this process might be influenced by gender-specific factors.


From this perspective, the correlation invites us to explore the systemic connections between gender, attractiveness, and self-confidence in German society. It prompts us to ask: How do German cultural norms differently affect self-confidence building across genders? What role can inclusive communities play in fostering equal self-confidence regardless of gender?


Ultimately, this correlation speaks to the Green value system's emphasis on equality, inclusivity, and systemic thinking. It suggests that in the Green worldview, addressing gender differences in self-confidence isn't just about individual empowerment and creating a more equitable and harmonious society.
