Logical levels
Robert Dilts developed the Logical Levels based on insights of Gregory Bateson. People use this model to describe roles holistically, which are generalized descriptions of people and groups - from the environment and visible actions through convictions up to the affiliation. The following model concentrates on management needs
It links the crucial aspects which you need for the description of people.
- Context
The context describes the environment, the surrounding field. Core elements are stakeholder, geographical conditions, and time frame.
- Actions
On this level, you describe visible practices and behavior.
- Capabilities
Capabilities describe skills, knowledge, and experiences.
- Convictions
Convictions are mental maps that you define as vision, mission, swot (strengths/ weaknesses, opportunities/ threats), critical success factors, and strategic goals.
- Roles
Roles describe tasks, authority, and responsibility of individuals or a group of people.
- Affiliation
Affiliation describes the moral concepts that are influencing almost unconsciously.
