ANGELA DUCKWORTH,bestselling author of Grit
In her multi-million-copy bestsellerMindset Carol Dweck coined the terms fixed and growth mindset, transforming our view of individual success. In a fixed mindset, talent and intelligence are viewed as predetermined traits, while in a growth mindset, talent and intelligence can be nurtured,
In Cultures of Growth, award-winning social psychologist Mary C. Murphy argues that mindset transcendsindividuals. Drawing on compelling examples from her work with Fortune 500 companies, startups and schools, she shows how we can all create a growth mindsetculture.
Murphys original decade-long research reveals that organisations and teams more geared toward growth inspire deeper learning, spark collaboration, spur innovation, and build trust necessary for risk-taking and inclusion. They are also less likely to cheat, cut corners, or steal each others ideas. Andtheyre more likely to achieve top results. In these cultures, great ideas come from people from all backgrounds and at all levels - not just those anointed as brilliant or talented.
In a world where success seems reserved for a chosen few,Cultures of Growthunveils a radically different approach to creating organisations that inspire learning, growth, and success at all levels.
