In this episode we discuss adult vertical development and how an understanding of a leader's developmental stage can radically enhance/impact on their performance and what change that might make to the coaching you do. "Exceptional leaders in even moderately complex environments outperform their average peers by 225% " This was research by Mckinsey that confirms that the difference between average and top performing leaders becomes radically amplified as the challenge becomes more complex.We talk about Robert Kegan’s metaphor: Fill the Cup AND Expand the Cup and share Nick Petrie’s content about Vertical Leaders.Resources:HBR article Seven Transformations of Leadership - https://hbr.org/2005/04/seven-transformations-of-leadershipDavid Rooke: "We are meaning making beings" - https://vimeo.com/407582498Nick Petrie: Vertical Leaders Part 1 - https://www.ccl.org/articles/leading-effectively-articles/developing-talent-youre-probably-missing-vertical-development/Nick Petrie: Vertical Leaders Part 2 - https://www.ccl.org/articles/leading-effectively-articles/developing-talent-youre-probably-missing-vertical-development/
