We all love our tribe. The people who “get us,” who see the world the way we do. It feels safe. And it’s deeply human.
But there’s a hidden cost to staying too tightly within our own circle: we miss what other tribes can teach us.
At work, this may look like friction between departments. In life, it shows up as division.
Yet when we step outside our tribe and truly listen, we start to see the same challenges through a different lens. We discover new solutions. And slowly, the gap between “us” and “them” becomes a space for co-creation.
As leaders, build bridges – not walls – between your tribes.
How could your team benefit from more cross-tribal conversations ?
What might become possible if “us vs. them” turned into “we” ?
