Explore how Teal leadership principles guide purpose-driven practices
What is Culture of One?
Culture of One is the idea that every successful organisation—whether a clinic, a business, or a team—is driven by a unity of purpose that connects the individual with the collective.
Each business, team, and individual contributes a unique identity, voice, and strength.
When empowered, these elements come together to create something far greater than the sum of their parts.
Inspired by Frederic Laloux’s Teal framework, Culture of One aligns with the principles of self-management, wholeness, and evolutionary purpose.
This approach empowers individuals and teams to function with autonomy, authenticity, and a shared mission—allowing your clinic to thrive while adapting to new challenges with resilience and purpose.
Why “One”?
- One Self
Wholeness lies at the core of individual empowerment. At Culture of One, everyone is encouraged to bring their whole self to work. This creates a culture where diversity sparks innovation and personal growth flourishes - One Purpose
An evolutionary purpose aligns personal values with collective goals, creating sustainable and meaningful growth. At Culture of One, purpose isn’t static—it evolves as the team grows, enabling long-term impact while staying adaptive - One Team
A thriving team is built on trust, shared accountability, and collaboration. At Culture of One, we move beyond rigid hierarchies, empowering teams to function with autonomy while contributing toward a shared mission.

How Does This Apply to Your Business
- Empowered Diversity
Every individual plays a vital role—whether the clinic owner or a brand-new hire. When people feel valued and empowered to contribute authentically, it creates space for creativity and growth, allowing unique strengths to flourish and enrich both team culture and business outcomes. - Resilience Through Innovation
Resilience grows from trust, autonomy, and authentic collaboration. Moving away from high-pressure environments allows teams to thrive organically, embracing change as an opportunity for growth. - Evolutionary Alignment
Personal and business goals align seamlessly within a purpose-driven, sustainable environment. This alignment allows everyone to thrive—not only financially, but also ethically and personally—as they work together toward a shared mission.

Not Just for Small Businesses
Culture of One transcends size—it’s about being whole and driven by a shared purpose.
Whether you lead a clinic of 3 or a practice of 300, thesame principles apply: empowered individuals, resilient teams, and shared purpose are the keys to sustainable growth and long-term success.
It’s not about size—it’s about integrity, alignment, and trust. When every individual’s potential is nurtured and aligned with collective goals, your team can achieve more together than the sum of its parts.
