What is a Growth Mindset?

What is a growth mindset? The chances are you’ve already heard about the work of Stanford Professor, Carol Dweck. The increasing popularity of mindset alongside positive psychology has seen it applied within the workplace, coaching, sports psychology and education. There’s a huge buzz around Carol Dweck’s growth mindset research and how it can be used to improve performance in a huge range of areas.
Dweck discovered that some people are constantly learning, they’re curious about why things happened, how things work and how they can develop. Other people seem to believe that they can’t learn, that they’re stuck with what they’ve got. Mindset is the way that Dweck describes these two positions, a set of beliefs that determine how you interact with the world at home and at work.
With a growth mindset people believe that their abilities can be developed and improved with effort. Learning and mastery play a huge role in growth mindset, creating the telltale love of learning and resilience when faced with failure. Want to discover more?
