What great tribal leaders do

We hang out with people who are similar; we flock to groups and tribes. It's a natural thing - we've always formed tribes. 

Psst! Take a look around - who's in your tribe? Which tribes are you part of?

And in your workplace, space, team or community, how are you building a tribe?

As Dave Logan presents in his TED talk on Tribal Leadership, great tribal leaders connect people between tribes.

Connecting people. That's the work great tribal leaders do. They cross silos and bridge the chasms that exist in organisations. My visual notes this issue were captured as I listened to Dave Logan's talk. 

Hey, it's through our tribes that good work gets done and the important things get ticked off, shaped, shared and shipped.

I also enjoy thought leader Michael Henderson's blog, books and work as a corporate anthropologist on the topic of cultures at work. He talks about creating 'cultures worth belonging to'.  

As a leader of your tribe today, what are you doing? How are you connecting across and between tribes?
