About this listen

 In this bonus episode of Building Better Leaders Season 3 we speak to Jennifer Garvey Berger, CEO of Cultivating Leadership – a B Corp that supports leaders, teams, and whole organisations to rise to the challenge and opportunity in a complex, changing world.
Jennifer has a masters and doctorate from the University of Harvard, where she was the student of professor Bob Keegan whose work on adult development theory formed the basis of Jennifers research.
Jennifer is also the author of several books and the reason we've got her on the podcast is to talk about her latest book Changing on the Job which is in its second edition.
In this podcast conversation we talk to Jennifer about her latest book, asking her about:
  • What is adult development theory and why is it important in leadership?
  • What are the four forms of mind?
  • Which questions you can ask to uncover which form of mind you are probably operating in currently?
  • What is complexity fitness?
  • How to identify where your team might be operating from today?
  • The role of the ego in adult development theory
  • How do you move towards the self-transforming mindset?
  • Which leaders Jennifer thinks operate from the self-transforming mindset today?

Jennifers Leadership Essentials:
  1. Get curious about your own sense making. Ask what other possible perspectives can I take and consider in this situation?
  2. Actively listen in a more open and curious way. What is causing this person to say and think this way?
  3. Take care of your body. How can I get better quality sleep, choose my diet more carefully, and nourish my mind and body?
This conservation was a real privilege, and we are incredibly grateful to Jennifer for giving up her time to join us on the podcast. If you’d like to buy her book or find out more about her, please check out:
