A type III civilization achieves impressive developments managing to handle energies billions of billions of times superior to the energy capacity that is being managed in our planet Earth. Somehow it has managed to expand beyond its solar system and has learned to use the energy of its galaxy system. Somewhere in the galaxy there could be a civilization that has merged with its technology to expand its radius of action to the entire galaxy. Someday with the advances of Robotics and Artificial Intelligence AI our civilization could reach the status of this level of advanced civilization.
What would a Type IV civilization still have to achieve? Make use of the energy of the entire universe. A civilization of this kind would have full power to manipulate space and time. From there type V civilizations would reach such a power compared to that of a divine being or God.
The logic of the same scale could be extrapolated for the case of countries, organizations or even yourself. At what level of the scale you can handle information, energy or even your personal brand and what actions you could take to change your scale or sphere of action? Many professionals look for solutions to problems based on the scale in which they find themselves but do not do the impossible to change the scale of their sphere of action.
