Led by Dr. Jennifer Garvey Berger, Co-founder and CEO of Cultivating Leadership, the session brought together India’s top business leaders to explore new approaches to navigating complexity and redefining leadership for the future. The event also marked a significant milestone, celebrating 15 years of CII’s Leadership Centre of Excellence and its ongoing commitment to shaping visionary leaders for Indian industry.
With organizations facing rapid market shifts, technological disruptions, and workforce transformations, the sessions provided an invaluable opportunity for leaders to engage with Jennifer’s globally recognized insights on leadership in complexity. The discussions emphasized the need for adaptability, systemic thinking, and collaboration as key leadership capabilities for the future. Attendees actively participated in thought-provoking conversations, interactive exercises, and real-world case studies designed to challenge conventional leadership models and inspire new approaches to strategic decision-making.
Reflecting on the event, Shweta Anand Arora, Director, Cultivating Leadership, India, said, “The overwhelming response from Indian business leaders reaffirms the urgency of redefining leadership in today’s dynamic environment. Complexity is not a challenge to be solved but a reality to be embraced. Jennifer’s insights have provided Indian leaders with practical tools and mindsets to navigate uncertainty with confidence, shaping a more resilient and forward-thinking leadership culture.”
Jennifer Garvey Berger, known for her work with global organizations such as Google, Microsoft, and Novartis, shared her insights for building adaptability in leadership in her 2-hour workshops, focussed on the mindtraps leaders tend to deal with and how that changes the way they show up for their teams and eventually lead.
Speaking about her experience of the sessions, Jennifer emphasized, “The leaders in the room were incredibly diverse, coming from so many different places and organizations—it was like a small version of a giant society right there with us. I was delighted by how thoughtful their questions were, how deeply they sought to understand, and how happy they were to share with one another. Often, leaders can feel disconnected from those outside their industry, but this group was so warm and welcoming of all the differences in the room. I found that truly inspiring.”
