Mindset

After years of research, Carol S. Dweck, Ph. D. , a Stanford University psychologist and expert in fixed and growth mindsets, discovered some important ideas that could substantially affect the way people think about themselves and their abilities. Mindset shows how success in school and work, as well as at a variety of other human endeavors, is dependent on our mindset: whether we believe that our abilities can grow with hard work or that our natural talents are the only factors that determine how well we will do. As an educator, parent, manager, or athlete, you can use these findings to create a more positive mindset among your students or children, team members or employees.
