  • S3: A deep dive into Adult Development Theory with Jennifer Garvey Berger

    S3: A deep dive into Adult Development Theory with Jennifer Garvey Berger
    Feb 14 2025
    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:

  • S3: Striving for Peak Performance at work

    S3: Striving for Peak Performance at work
    Feb 5 2025
    In the fourth episode of Building Better Leaders Season 3 we look at how peak performance works at work. John and Rachael explore the concept of peak performance in a business context, discussing its cultivation, application, and sustainability within organisations.

    The conversation starts by examining the psychological aspects of performance, including the Yerkes-Dobson law and the relationship between stress, motivation, and productivity. The conversation covers the importance of understanding individual performance curves and the four short terms zones performance can fall into - the recuperation zone, performance zone, stretch zone and overwhelm. Then they discuss how leaders can use this information to better manage energy levels to balance high performance with rest periods to avoid burnout and maintain productivity in themselves and their teams within the workplace.

    The coaching questions posed in this podcast include:
    Asking leaders to understand that the performance curve is unique for everyone
    How you take personal responsibility for managing your own time, energy management and stress levels to ensure you achieve effective performance.
    Understanding that peak performance is not always achievable in the workplace, but it is a valuable goal to strive for.

    Leadership Essentials:

    1. Get curious as to how you manage your energy levels by recognising the relationship between your arousal and stress levers
    2. What are the factors at play in your role and organisation that require peak performance, and restoration? What skill levels are required? What do you need to get better at?
    3. Is peak performance something you should be striving for in your role? Short term - Yes, Long term - No.
