From Hierarchy → Harmony. From Vision → Resonance.
Purpose:
To ensure everyone in the organization — regardless of title — is living, leading, and working from the same core values and shared energetic field.
When the janitor and the founder share the same sense of purpose, the organization becomes a living organism.
1. ORGANIZATIONAL COHERENCE PYRAMID
| Layer | Field | Primary Question | Output |
|---|---|---|---|
| Soul | Vision | Why do we exist beyond profit? | Shared North Star |
| Heart | Values & Culture | How do we treat each other and those we serve? | Behavioral Compass |
| Mind | Roles & Systems | Who does what, how, and why? | Clarity & Accountability |
| Body | Actions & Operations | How do we execute with integrity and rhythm? | Efficiency & Flow |
| Field | Energy & Impact | What frequency does our organization emit? | Measurable Resonance |
Goal:
Every level vibrates in coherence — purpose aligned with practice, values embodied in action.
2. FOUNDERS’ ALIGNMENT AUDIT
Purpose: Re-align the founders’ internal compass and collective leadership field.
| Dimension | Reflection | Yes / No | Action Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vision Unity | Do we each describe the vision in the same words? | ||
| Values Integrity | Are our personal values embodied in how we lead? | ||
| Energy Alignment | Are we creating from overflow, not depletion? | ||
| Role Clarity | Do we each know our genius zone and stay in it? | ||
| Communication | Are we addressing tension early, without avoidance? | ||
| Decision-Making | Do we trust the agreed system (consensus, lead, or intuition)? | ||
| Regulation | Can we stay calm and present under pressure? | ||
| Legacy | Are we building something that will outlive us? |
Output:
Founders sign a Collective Alignment Charter stating:
“We lead from coherence. Our creation must nourish us, our team, and the world equally.”
3. TEAM ALIGNMENT AUDIT (ALL LEVELS)
Every team member completes this quarterly, anonymously or in circle dialogue.
A. Vision Resonance
- I understand the organization’s purpose clearly.
- I see how my role contributes to that vision.
- I feel inspired by the direction we are going.
- I believe the leadership walks its talk.
- I would be proud to tell my family what I do here.
Scoring (1–5):
- 20–25 = Fully resonant.
- 14–19 = Needs communication or inspiration.
- <14 = Misaligned — deeper conversation required.
B. Values Embodiment
Each person rates how often they see and live each core value daily.
| Core Value | I See It | I Live It | I Need More Support |
|---|---|---|---|
| Integrity | |||
| Service | |||
| Connection | |||
| Growth | |||
| Freedom | |||
| Regeneration |
Prompt:
Where are we out of alignment between what we say and what we do?
C. Role Clarity
| Reflection | Rating (1–5) |
|---|---|
| I know what success looks like in my role. | |
| I have the resources and autonomy to do it. | |
| I understand how my work affects others. | |
| I feel seen and valued for my contribution. |
If average score <16 → realign with team lead through a “Role Resonance Conversation”.
D. Energy & Wellbeing
| Area | Check-In Question | Rating (1–5) |
|---|---|---|
| Physical | Do I feel healthy and rested? | |
| Emotional | Do I feel emotionally safe at work? | |
| Mental | Do I have clarity and focus? | |
| Relational | Do I feel connected to my team? | |
| Spiritual | Do I feel purposeful in what I do? |
Optional Daily Ritual:
Each morning: “What frequency will I bring to this space today?”
Each evening: “Did I leave it higher?”
4. ROLE ARCHETYPE MAPPING
Each team member identifies their Energetic Archetype (can overlap).
| Archetype | Essence | Role Type | Shadow to Watch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visionary | Sees the big picture | Founder / Creative Director | Overwhelm, impatience |
| Architect | Builds systems | Ops, Finance, HR | Rigidity |
| Healer | Nurtures people | Hospitality, HR, Facilitator | Over-giving |
| Builder | Executes plans | Logistics, Maintenance | Burnout |
| Host | Connects hearts | Guest Relations, Events | Emotional fatigue |
| Artist | Beautifies environment | Design, Chef, Experience | Perfectionism |
Application:
Each person’s role should match their natural frequency, not just their job title.
Misaligned archetypes cause most team burnout.
5. THE CULTURE COHERENCE CIRCLE
A quarterly 2-hour ritual to check the pulse of the collective field.
Step 1 — Opening:
Breath + silence + gratitude.
Step 2 — The Pulse Round:
Each member shares in one line:
- What gives me energy here?
- What drains my energy here?
- One suggestion to improve coherence.
Step 3 — Alignment Reflection:
Read aloud the core vision & values.
Ask: “Are we living this or just saying it?”
Step 4 — Action Integration:
Document the 3 most repeated insights.
Convert them into next-quarter initiatives.
Step 5 — Closing:
Acknowledgement round: one word of gratitude per person.
Outcome:
A living, breathing feedback loop — culture as a verb, not a slogan.
6. JANITOR-TO-FOUNDER ALIGNMENT LOOP
Why it matters:
The janitor who feels valued keeps the field clean — energetically and physically.
When every member understands they are a steward of coherence, the entire organization vibrates higher.
| Practice | Application |
|---|---|
| Vision Briefs for All | Monthly 20-min all-hands “story circle” sharing wins, purpose, and impact stories. |
| Open Feedback Pathway | Any team member can offer feedback directly to leadership through a safe channel (written or circle). |
| Energy Exchange Days | Quarterly rotation: founders spend one day shadowing ground staff; ground staff attend leadership huddles. |
| Equal Respect Rituals | Shared meals, gratitude acknowledgements, inclusion in celebrations and debriefs. |
Mantra:
“We may hold different roles, but we serve the same purpose.”
7. THE ORGANIZATIONAL ENERGY SCORECARD
| Metric | Data Source | Frequency | Ideal Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Employee Wellbeing Index | Team survey | Quarterly | >8/10 |
| Retention / Turnover Rate | HR | Biannual | <10% turnover |
| Energy Alignment (avg of team check-ins) | Weekly standup | Ongoing | >80% resonant |
| Guest / Client Feedback | Reviews & NPS | Post-event | >9/10 |
| Profit-to-Purpose Ratio | Finance + Impact reports | Annual | 70/30 regenerative |
8. ORGANIZATIONAL ALIGNMENT HAIKU
From broom to boardroom,
one pulse beats beneath the roof.
Clean hands, clear hearts, rise.
9. IMPLEMENTATION FRAMEWORK
| Step | Action | Tool | Owner |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Launch team-wide audit survey | Google / Notion form | HR / Culture lead |
| 2 | Host Vision-Values Workshop | Circle format | Founders |
| 3 | Realign Roles to Genius Zones | Archetype mapping | Ops lead |
| 4 | Establish Quarterly Culture Circle | Rotating facilitator | All departments |
| 5 | Integrate Energy Scoreboard | Dashboard view | Finance + People Ops |
| 6 | Review Outcomes & Iterate | Collective meeting | Leadership |
10. CLOSING INSIGHT
A coherent organization doesn’t run on policies.
It runs on presence.
When every person — from the janitor to the founder — understands that their work is sacred,
the business stops being a company and becomes a living ecosystem.
Money flows where energy flows.
Energy flows where people feel seen.
People feel seen when they share the same purpose.
That’s alignment.
