Today’s world has been described as VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous volatile. Individuals, professionals, leaders, employees can no longer have a fixed mindset to do things that succeed yesterday. Instead, all need a growth mindset to be better prepared to adapt to change and to thrive. The growth mindset, based on research by Dr Carol Dweck, has increasingly become a buzzword in meetings and workplace settings.
So what exactly is a Growth Mindset (vs Fixed Mindset), why should it matter and how can employees develop it in your organisations?
According to Dr Carol Dweck, a psychologist well known for her research in growth mindset, humans can have Growth or Fixed Mindsets. Dr Dweck’s research suggests that individuals with a fixed mindset often question their ability and are worried about others outperforming them. This anxiety constrains the ability to innovate and can lead to a silo and status quo culture.
Growth mindset employees, on the other hand, are more ready to embrace new ways of working and feel a strong sense of ownership and commitment to companies. Your mindset plays a critical role in reaching your potential.
