I recently chatted with Ryan Gottfredson, Ph.D, and it was one of the most engaging and fascinating interviews I’ve done.

Ryan is a cutting-edge leadership development author, researcher, and consultant, with a focus on vertical development. In case this is a new concept for you (or even if you’re familiar, you may want to hear what Ryan has to say about it), you’ll definitely want to listen in!

We discussed

  • What vertical development is (and it’s something that everyone wants, but they don’t know exactly what it is)
  • The two different types of development and 90% of leadership development efforts are in one, and it’s woefully inadequate
  • How we navigate change, pressure, uncertainty, and complexity
  • The paradoxes of being a leader
  • How most leaders view failure
  • Vertical development characteristics
  • 3 adult developmental levels (that correspond to vertical development)
  • 2 approaches to vertically developing ourselves
