Mindset

After decades of research, Stanford University psychologist Carol S. Dweck, discovered a simple but groundbreaking idea: the power of mindset. In this brilliant book, she shows how success in almost every area of human endeavor can be influenced by how we think about our talents and abilities. People with a fixed mindset—those who believe that abilities are fixed—are less likely to flourish than those with a growth mindset—those who believe that abilities can be developed.

In this book, Dweck introduces a phenomenon she calls false growth mindset and guides people toward adopting a deeper, truer growth mindset. She also expands the mindset concept beyond the individual, applying it to the cultures of groups and organizations. With the right mindset, you can motivate those you lead, teach, and love—to transform their lives and your own.
