The Orpheus
SymphonyPhilosophy: leadership is not the responsibility of one person; it is instead achieved through highly
cohesive core groups/teams.
Body I: Motivation * shared values and motivations create cohesiveness which eliminates the need for a solitary leader
Body II: Strategy * common objectives and shared values lead to highly cohesive teams * leadership is shared if group members trust and respect each other
Body III: Decision-Making * accomplished through constantly rotated and well-lead core groups
Body IV: Work * providing feedback to one another is essential for creating these cohesive teams
Main Principles
