THE FIFTH DISCIPLINE: MENTAL
MODEL

The Fifth Discipline: Mental Model
• One life s journey starts,
Not when one decide how far to go,
But when one decide how deep to know oneself.
• Mental Model

– It is a framework for the cognitive processes of our mind.
In other words, it determines how we think and act
– theories of a tion or espoused theory whi h are a set of
rules that we use for our own behaviors as well as to
understand the behaviors of others.
– However, people don't usually follow their stated action
theories. The way they really behave can be called their
theory-in-use.


Adapted from Peter Senge: The Fifth Discipline, Doubleday, 1990.

The Fifth Discipline: Mental Model
• However, people don't usually follow
their stated action theories. The way
they really behave can be called their
theory-in-use. It is usual:
– To remain in unilateral control,
– To maximize winning and minimize
losing,
– To suppress negative feelings, and
– To be as rational as possible by which
people mean defining clear objectives
and evaluating their behavior in terms
of whether or not they have achieved
them. (Argyris, 1991).

Ladder of Inference – How we see what we see

It is about Me, Now, Win (my Ego)

Adapted from Peter Senge: The Fifth Discipline, Doubleday, 1990.

Ladder of Inference – How we see what we see
REFLEXCIVE LOOP : our
BELIEFS affect what data
we select next

I take ACTIONS
based on my beliefs
I adopt BELIEFS about the
world
I draw CONCLUSION

I make ASSUMPTIONS based on the
meaning I added

I add MEANINGS (Cultural and
Personal)

I select DATA from what I observe
Observable DATA and Experiences (as a
video tape recorder might capture it)

Adapted from Peter Senge: The Fifth Discipline, Doubleday, 1990.

X comes late to the meeting
X knows when the meeting is starting
X does not explain why he comes late to
the meeting
X comes late and no explanation
X deliberately comes late

X always comes late
We can not count on X, he is unreliable
Unreliable can not be tolerated because
it shows there is no commitment


Adapted from Peter Senge: The Fifth Discipline, Doubleday, 1990.

The Fifth Discipline: Mental Model
• Ladder of inference: Our mental model is flawed

– We generalize our beliefs and assumptions to the next
situation we encounter and use them to filter the data
we are willing to consider. Hence, every time we start
up the ladder for a new situation, we are handicapped
from the beginning. (Argyris, 1993; Senge, Fieldbook,
1994)
