A New Framework for Durable Competitive Advantage: The 5 Systems

The Basics

The PSG Five Systems are a framework rooted in the most basic observations of human psychological development as predicted by Jungian psychology (which itself is rooted in the Five Aggregates of Buddhism). Jungian behavioral psychology predicts that all humans evolve according to the following pattern:

  1. We shape our physical environment

  2. We express emotions

  3. We form identities

  4. We build systems

  5. We choose our perspective with intention

The PSG Five Systems proposes that this pattern also describes the evolution of any business and that in business, this process is a fractal pattern that can repeat when a new identity is intentionally chosen at system 5. The PSG Five Systems framework builds on firmly established research to guide visionary leaders and organizations through this evolutionary process and to identify the required next evolution for survival in your specific fitness landscape.

The Process

The PSG Five Systems is a bespoke three-stage journey tailored to meet a specific need and to achieve a specific outcome. And like all mastery, an infinitely complex landscape can be described in simple terms. Partnering with the PSG will lead your company through the following three-stage journey:

  • A diagnostic process identifying existing patterns and root causes in your organization and its context

  • Use the PSG Five Systems to Develop and explore new possible paradigms that identify your next best step in the fractal pattern
