Jason V. Barger’s Thermostat Cultures Live Event: A Preview
In this episode of The Thermostat Podcast, Jason V. Barger talks about the upcoming Thermostat Cultures Live event. He reflects on the event’s history, its purpose, and what attendees can expect this year.
A Brief History
Barger started the Thermostat Cultures Live event eight years ago with the goal of bringing together leaders from different organizations and industries to discuss authentic leadership and culture. Past speakers have included Howard Behar (former president of Starbucks), Shane Battier (two-time NBA champion), and Jenny Britton (founder of Jenny’s Ice Creams).
The Purpose
The event aims to provide a space for leaders to step back, reflect, and calibrate their “thermostats.” Barger emphasizes the importance of setting the right “temperature” in one’s life and work, and being intentional about the kind of leader one wants to be.
What to Expect This Year
This year’s event will be hybrid, with a limited in-person VIP experience in Columbus, Ohio, and a virtual option for remote attendees. The speaker lineup includes James Clear (author of Atomic Habits), Chloe Valdary (founder of Theory of Enchantment), and Howard Behar.
Key Themes
- The Importance of Authentic Leadership: Barger stresses the need for leaders to be genuine and intentional in their actions.
- Creating a Positive Culture: He discusses the importance of creating a positive and supportive work environment where people feel connected and valued.
- The Power of Stepping Back: He encourages listeners to take time to reflect and recalibrate, both personally and professionally.
Notable Quotes
-
“The best leaders and team cultures in the world are the ones that make time to step back, breathe in good oxygen and calibrate their thermostat.”
-
“We all need time to… step back and to think and to breathe and to… think about that temperature that we’re trying to set in our own life… and certainly in our work.”
-
“We are all thermostats for the people around us. Our own internal temperature sets a temperature externally for others around us.”
Questions to Ponder
- How can you be more intentional about the kind of leader you are?
- What steps can you take to create a more positive and connected culture in your workplace?

ABOUT THE THERMOSTAT
Conversations and micro-thoughts to engage your mind and heart.
A thermostat is proactive. It sets the temperature in a room. Controls the temperature. Regulates the temperature. But in today’s distracted, fast-paced and digital world, it’s easy for individuals and organizations to act more like thermometers, slipping into reactionary thinking, becoming scattered and inconsistent. The most compelling leaders, teams, organizations, families, or collection of humans of any kind operate in thermostat mode. They calibrate their mind and heart to set the temperature for the vision and culture they want to create. Jason Barger, globally celebrated author, keynote speaker, and founder of Step Back Leadership Consulting, is the host of The Thermostat, a podcast journey to discover authentic leadership, create compelling cultures and find clarity of mission, vision, and values.
