NEW: This workshop fulfills a credit in NPS's new The Innovative Leader Series.
Complete five workshops in the category to earn a certificate and digital badge. A growth mindset is the belief that abilities and intelligence can be developed over time through dedication, hard work, and learning from experiences. This concept, popularized by psychologist Carol Dweck, contrasts with a fixed mindset, where individuals believe their abilities are static and unchangeable. People with a growth mindset view challenges as opportunities to improve rather than as obstacles. They tend to be more resilient, embracing setbacks as learning experiences rather than failures, and they seek out constructive feedback to help them grow. This mindset fosters a love of learning, enhances problem-solving abilities, and encourages continuous personal and professional development. This two-hour session will provide the framework along with the knowledge necessary to not just cultivate a growth mindset but learn specific strategies to put it into action to see results. Key Concepts: Recognize how a growth mindset enhances adaptability, resilience, and engagement. A core belief that abilities, intelligence, and talents can be improved through dedication, effort, and learning over time. View challenges as opportunities for growth rather than as threats. Those with a growth mindset see difficult tasks as valuable learning experiences. Show resilience when facing obstacles. Instead of giving up, individuals with a growth mindset are determined to push through setbacks and use them as stepping stones. Value constructive feedback as a tool for improvement. Feedback is seen as a source of guidance and an opportunity to gain insights that can lead to growth. Reinforce that effort and resilience lead to improvement.
Upon completion participants will be able to: - Define growth mindset.
- Explore core principles of growth mindset and how it differs from fixed mindset.
- Discuss benefits of growth mindset.
- Explore potential barriers to adopting a growth mindset.
- Explore practical strategies to cultivate a growth mindset in daily work interactions.
- Practice reframing mistakes and setbacks as valuable learning experiences rather than failures.
- Reflect on key learnings, areas of further discovery, and next action steps.
