Herds – Perspective

Herds is based on community experiences that shape Perspective. While the Herds tool came into being because of societal and technological advances, all Herds still exist in certain communities. Where some generational tools don’t allow for nuance in communities, the Herds tool focuses on the communities that you spend your time in. This means that people can change if they spend their time in a different Herd. Recognizing perspective is especially useful when it comes to
communicating.
