The document discusses well-being at different stages of psychological development and how to achieve well-being at work. It defines well-being as feeling able to satisfy needs of one's current stage of development. It outlines 7 stages from surviving to serving and discusses the needs, motivations, and levels of consciousness associated with each. For well-being at work, one must satisfy the needs of the individuating, self-actualizing, integrating and serving stages. Achieving this depends on internal alignment and overcoming fears as well as a supportive organizational culture.

The Sectors We Work In
7. In Order to Understand The Ego-Soul
Dynamics of Well-Being At Work
We Must First Define
“WELL-BEING”
11. THE 4 MINDS
AND 3 BRAINS
Most scientists have a tendency to think of our mind/brain
as a single operating whole, but it is not. We have four
minds and three brains that control our reflexes,
behaviours and decision-making. The four minds and three
brains in order of their appearance in our lives are:
13. THE BODY MIND AND EGO MIND
The reptilian, limbic and
neocortex brains together are
known as the triune brain.
The reptilian mind/brain is
known as the body-mind.
The emotional mind and
rational mind are known as
the ego-mind.
14. A PERSONAL JOURNEY
Every person is on an evolutionary journey
of psychological development.
SERVING
SELF-ACTUALIZING
INDIVIDUATING
DIFFERENTIATING
CONFORMING
SURVIVING
INTEGRATING
15. “WELL-BEING ATWORK”
Well-being at work is the feeling you get when you are
able to satisfy the needs of the adult stages of
psychological development—Individuating,
Self-actualizing, Integrating and Serving
SERVING
INTEGRATING
SELF-
ACTUALIZING
INDIVIDUATING
16. We grow in stages of
psychological development
We operate at levels of
consciousness
We live inside
(are embedded in) cultural
world views
STAGES, LEVELS
AND WORLD VIEWS
17. LEVELS OF
CONSCIOUSNESS
All things being normal,
the level of consciousness we
operate from will correspond
to the stage of psychological
development we have reached.

44. LET’S DO AN EXERCISE
1. What age group are you in—
Individuating, Self-actualizing,
Integrating or Serving?
2. Form groups of 4, 5 or 6 people in
same age group.
3. Discuss what well-being means for
you in your age group?
46. B) become responsible and accountable
for every aspect of your life; and
WELL-BEING AT THE INDIVIDUATING
STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT (25-39 YEARS)
A) know yourself—identify your most
important values and the behaviours
that align with those values;
In order to find well-being at the individuating
stage of psychological development you need to:
C) learn to manage your fears and
develop your emotional intelligence skills.
47. In addition, you will be looking for opportunities to explore
your gifts and talents—find out what you are good at and like
doing and what you are not so good and do not like doing.
We don't want to be micro-managed, but we do want
someone we can turn to for advice. Someone we know we
can rely on who has our best interests at heart.
Without freedom, autonomy and challenges at this stage of
development, you will not experience well-being.
48. B) find your purpose in life—the work that
you love to do; and
WELL-BEING AT THE SELF-ACTUALIZING
STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT (40-49 YEARS)
A) release any fears you may have about
fully expressing who you really are;
In order to find well-being at the self-actualizing
stage of psychological development you will need to:
C) express your creativity.
49. In addition, you will be looking for opportunities to align your
purpose with your work so you find meaning in your life.
You will want a job that allows you to fully express who you
are, sparks your creativity and unleashes your passion.
If you cannot fully express who you are,
you will not experience well-being.
50. B) develop your empathy and social
intelligence skills; and,
WELL-BEING AT THE INTEGRATING
STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT (50-59 YEARS)
A) release any fears you have about
forming unconditional loving relationships;
In order to find well-being at the integrating stage of
psychological development you will need to:
C) actualize your purpose by connecting
with other like-minded individuals to
make a difference in the world.
51. In addition, you will be looking for
opportunities to collaborate with
other like-minded individuals on
projects that allow you to actualize
your purpose in life.
If you cannot connect with others
to make a difference,
you will not experience well-being.
52. B) develop your compassion skills; and,
WELL-BEING AT THE SERVING
STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT (60 + YEARS)
A) release any fears you have
about your self-worth;
In order to find well-being at the serving stage of
psychological development you will need to:
C) let yourself be guided by your soul’s
inspiration.
53. In addition, you will be looking for opportunities to
participate in acts of self-less service by alleviating suffering
and/or caring for the well-being of future generations,
humanity and the planet.
You want to leave the world a better place than you found it.
If you cannot make a contribution, you will
not experience well-being.
54. WHAT PREVENTS US FROM
FINDING WELL-BEING AT WORK
The personality of
your boss
(subconscious fear-
based beliefs—lack of
internal alignment).
3
The culture of the
organization—
potentially limiting
values.
21
Your personality
(subconscious fear-
based beliefs—lack of
internal alignment).
55. YOUR LACK
OF INTERNAL
ALIGNMENT
1
These are the issues you have with
regard to your unmet survival
(control), safety (relationship) and
security (self-esteem) needs.
You must learn to manage your
subconscious and conscious fears
and develop your emotional
intelligence skills.
You will need feedback from your
co-workers to master your fears.

56. THE CULTURE
OF THE
ORGANIZ-
ATION
2
If the culture of the organization
does not align with your values
and does not support you in
meeting your needs you will not
feel a sense of well-being—you
will not feel engaged. (High
cultural entropy and low cultural
well-being scores)
Cultural Transformation Tools:
Cultural Values Assessment
57. EXERCISE
Discuss in your group
how the culture of your
organization affects your
level of well-being
at work..
58. THE
PERSONALITY
OF YOUR
BOSS
3
These are the issues your boss
has with regard to his or her
unmet survival (control), safety
(relationship) and security (self-
esteem) needs.
He/she must learn to manage
his/her fears and develop his/her
emotional intelligence skills.
He/she will need feedback from
their subordinates and peers to
master his/her fears.

organizational dysfunction. It
measures the proportion of
limiting values in an
organization.
Cultural Entropy
The Barrett Values Centre’s
® score
62. is the inverse of the cultural entropy
score. It measures the proportion of
positive values in an organization—
the extent to which employees feel
their needs are being met.

CONFLICT, FRICTION

81. HOW DOES
CULTURAL
ENTROPY
ARISE?
Cultural entropy is a function of the personal
entropy of the current leaders of an
organisation and institutional legacy of
past leaders as embedded in the structures,
systems, policies and procedures.
84. Personal entropy arises from
subconscious fear-based beliefs
learned when we were young about
meeting our survival, safety and
security needs.

values at the survival
