The Fish Model provides a step-by-step approach to developing greater intellectual humility in leaders and team members.

As people who have guided many organizational transformations, we've found intellectual humility to be a crucial yet often overlooked capability—especially in times of uncertainty and change.

The image of a fish underscores that intellectual humility is an ongoing journey, not a fixed destination. Just as swimming requires constant effort, humility must be exercised regularly to become a natural strength.

The Fish Model's incremental progression makes the development process very accessible. Like a fish that continuously adjusts its movement to maintain progress, intellectually humble leaders iterate. They respect that today's right answers may be wrong tomorrow. By mastering the lifelong practice of intellectual humility through models like the Fish, leaders gain the resilience and flexibility to flourish in changing waters.
