9 levels

a psychological compass for alignment, leadership & fulfillment

why values?

Values are not just words or ideals.
They’re the invisible architecture behind every decision we make.

Values shape what we believe is right, what we prioritize, what we pursue.
They define meaning within our relationships, our teams, and our lives.
And when they go unspoken or misaligned—we feel it.

Misalignment leads to burnout, conflict, and stagnation.
Alignment leads to energy, clarity, and growth.

The 9 Levels of Value Systems® is a powerful tool that makes values visible.
It maps how your personal values evolve over time—and shows you how to lead, live, and choose from a place of deep congruency.

why 9 levels?

Most models measure behavior. This one measures why you behave the way you do.

Grounded in the research of Clare W. Graves, the 9 Levels show how individuals, teams, and organizations move through developmental stages—each marked by a distinct value system. You can see the worldviews you’re operating from, the ones you’ve outgrown, and the ones you’re growing into.

This tool gives you:

A map of your value system today

A mirror to understand past decisions and patterns

A compass to navigate what’s next—professionally and personally

when and where to use it

You want to understand why something doesn’t feel right.
Or why something that once worked… doesn’t anymore.

The 9 Levels can be used in:

Personal clarity and life direction coaching

Executive coaching & conscious leadership

Career (re)orientation, placement, or outplacement

Team & conflict coaching

Talent development & role alignment

Youth leadership and mentoring

Organizational transformation and culture evolution

If you’re leading a team, changing careers, or questioning your next step—this tool gives you clarity before action.

how it works

It starts with a short online assessment.
You receive a personal link and complete a set of guided questions.

Then we meet.
Together, we walk through your Personal Value System report, explore insights, and translate them into meaningful shifts.
We uncover what’s driving you today—and what’s ready to evolve.

The result?
A clear, actionable development path.
Decisions that feel easier—because they’re aligned.
And a deep understanding of what truly matters to you, right now.

why it matters

Because values drive behavior.
Because fulfillment follows alignment.
Because when you know what truly matters to you, everything else gets simpler.

If you’re feeling stuck, off-track, or pulled in too many directions—this is the place to begin.
