Book The Five Roles of a Master Herder by Linda Kohanov

Based on the research for her latest book 'The Five Roles of a Master Herder', Linda Kohanov highlights five natural roles which we all employ to achieve our goals.

Traditional herding cultures must manage large groups of powerful animals without the benefit of fences and very little reliance on restraints. These "Master Herders" exhibit a sophisticated understanding of leadership and group cohesion as they move through seasonal grazing lands, facing predators, and dealing with changing climates/resources along the way.

It's these five roles that help them do so: Dominant, Leader, Sentinel, Nurturer/Companion, Predator. These roles are also seen in the herds that these Master Herders live and travel with.

Ancient Nomadic wisdom

This knowledge, virtually lost to modern “civilized” leaders, is based on the little-known fact that among cattle and horses, the herd leader and the herd dominant are often different animals. Furthermore, group coordination and solidarity are reinforced through companionship, nurturing, and sentinel-related activities.

“Leaders, Dominants, Sentinels and Nurturer/Companions are all crucial to herd cohesiveness,” Linda writes.

“The animals themselves tend to play more than one role, though few are fluent in all the roles. The thing about being human among herbivores ten times your size is that you really do need to perform all these roles well to become a Master Herder, especially in the great unfenced back-country where freedom abides. Humans also need to separate predatory power from the other four roles. When used consciously and judiciously, the Predator role keeps life in balance with available resources. But for the most part, it is important to employ the Dominant, Leader, Sentinel and Nurturer/Companion roles in their non-predatory forms.”
