The Compass: A dynamic tool to help end tick-box HR
HRZone
October 14, 2025

Summary: Most performance management systems aren’t working. HR is still using rigid frameworks that can’t keep pace with how people actually create value in fast-moving, AI-enabled teams. The Compass is a practical tool that tracks value creation across four interdependent dimensions: Self (resilience), Soul (meaning), Soft (execution), and Spirit (trust). Instead of asking ‘What skills do we have?’, you ask ‘Where are we creating value right now?’ The Compass helps you diagnose imbalances and redirect energy in real time, turning uncertainty from a threat into a resource for growth.

Why HRBPs Still Don’t Move the Needle: Metabolic Alignment with HR Archetypes Dynamics
Linkedin
August 12, 2025

Looking Within reframes today’s HR debate by shifting attention from structural reshuffles to the organisation’s psychological body. The article distinguishes a conscious layer (structures, rules, processes, competencies, behaviours) from an unconscious layer (imprints, trauma, shadow, unspoken values and the dominant “game” the system plays). It introduces HR Archetypes Dynamics: The Game–Shadow–Value Matrix (13×13), extending classic models to 13 developmental levels and 13 diagnostic factors, including the hormone–behaviour climate (e.g., cortisol for threat, dopamine for novelty/achievement).

By naming the prevailing unconscious game and developmental level, the model explains why HR often defaults to a firefighting archetype (the HRBP included): systemic inertia and metabolic misalignment pull HR back regardless of titles or frameworks. The proposed remedy is metabolic alignment—configuring or developing the HR archetype the system actually needs (typically one level ahead), and translating hidden patterns into practical levers for change and cost optimisation.

Part II will outline the diagnostic workflow and typical conflict loops; Part III will detail how to design metabolically aligned actions and build the HR Game-Change Leader archetype.

Stop the skills obsession: The six human states that drive real outcomes
HRZone
August 12, 2025

Have you jumped on the skills bandwagon? Most employers have. But skills alone won’t bring organisational success, warns Culture Transformation Leader Zhanna Zhuravleva. As AI increasingly picks up functional work, it's the human state – our lived experiences, attitudes and energy – that create the real value for organisations.

Meta-Adaptation : The Art of Changing the Game in an Era of Uncertainty
Linkedln
October 30, 2025

At the heart of our modern understanding of uncertainty lie quantum perspectives on the multi-dimensionality of the world and non-linear time. Quantum physics demonstrated that uncertainty is a fundamental characteristic of reality, not a defect.
