Let's ditch the idea that "Geniuses are born, not made." Stop putting pressure on yourself to have all the answers, and instead place emphasis valuing your effort and curiosity. When we allow ourselves to 'not-know' and learn from others, we foster resilience and adaptability. When the inevitable challenge arises, we don't freeze... we wake up! Hard work beats talent any day. #growthmindset #businesstips #resetleadership #professionaldevelopment #leadershipdevelopment

?? Boost your workplace success by avoiding these common mistakes. Trust your team (or others) and focus on the results, keep growing by learning new skills and seeking mentors, and improve collaborative work with clear communication and defined roles. #growthmindset #professionaldevelopment #resetleadership

It’s essential to critically reflect on our mindsets and behaviours at work. Whether they hold us back personally or impact others, adopting a growth mindset can transform our professional lives. 1. Blaming (Others or Yourself): Shift from finger-pointing to problem-solving. Embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and learning. 2. Undermining (Others or Yourself): Recognize and celebrate all achievements. Build yourself up with self-compassion and support. 3. Complaining (About Others or Yourself): Turn complaints into constructive action. Practice gratitude and resilience, and approach challenges with a positive attitude. Let’s uplift ourselves and each other by fostering a supportive and growth-oriented work environment! ?? #growthmindset #leadershipdevelopment #resetleadership #redflags

In a culture- obsessed with endle-ss expansion, growth, and consumption, it's understandable that a conce-pt like Growth Mindset might easily ge-t lumped in with the toxic "growth at all costs" mentality that has done- so much damage. Yes, at its core, it's about a mindse-t of learning, developme-nt and continuous improvement - personally and profe-ssionally. But in today's context of mounting environmental and social challe-nges, Growth Mindset has an even de-eper, more vital role- to play. When we- approach the world with a Growth Mindset, it empowe-rs us to see challenge-s not as threats, but as opportunities to stretch, e-volve, and become the- best version of ourselve-s. It gives us the courage to le-t go of our fears and insecurities, ge-t comfortable with vulnerability and uncertainty, and support one- another's learning journeys. Far from fuelling unsustainable consumption, this mindset actually encourage-s us to seek out innovative, re-generative solutions. It prompts us to think outside- the box, to be willing to venture- down unconventional paths, and to transform our daily habits and behaviors towards more circular, sustainable- ways of living and working. In other words, Growth Mindset isn't about "more, bigge-r, better" - it's about the wisdom to consume- less, while expanding the- richness of our inner lives and our conne-ctions with others. It's about finding the courage to e-volve, adapt, and co-create a future- that works for all. ?

The #1 biggest misconception that people have about growth and fixed mindsets is that they are static. ?? People tend to think "You either have a growth mindset or you don't", but it's not so black and white. ? In reality: Mindsets are on spectrums that fluctuate throughout our lives. Sometimes we embody a growth mindset, resilient and eager to learn. Other times, we want to lean on a fixed mindset which makes us feel comfortable in what we already know. ?? The beauty lies in the fluidity of our mindset—the capacity to shift along the spectrum in response to our experiences. Just as a river meanders through landscapes, our mindset adapts to the contours of our lives. ?? Cultivate self-awareness and embrace change. Navigate the spectrum with intentionality, shaping your mindset to align with aspirations and propel towards fullest potential. #growthmindset #professionaldevelopment #leadershipskills

?? Risk-Taking, by its very nature, can be daunting, especially in a business environment where entire departments are dedicated to prevent us from betting the company. However, In today's dynamic business landscape, risk-taking isn't just an option—it's a necessity. It's about challenging the status quo, experimenting with new ideas, and being unafraid to fail. Every setback is a lesson, and every risk taken brings us one step closer to success. ?? Here is a free practice exercise we've developed to help you get started. It's called Small Bets. The goal is to break down big goals into bite size pieces. Plan brief collaborative sessions to identify the riskiest assumptions of your project and build a backlog of mini-experiments to de-risk them with facts instead of opinions. Use this to build a learning, experimental mindset. #takerisks #professionaldevelopment #growthmindset
