On today’s show, we’re discussing ways to help you can develop and foster a growth mindset within the culture of your business, and I’ll outline a simple call to action that you can use to get everyone on your team on board. So, let’s get into it, shall we!

Defining the Issue: What is a Growth Mindset

First, let’s define what a growth mindset is and how this relates to us all on a daily basis. A growth mindset is the belief that abilities and intelligence can be developed through dedication and hard work. This contrasts with a fixed mindset, which believes that abilities are innate and cannot be changed.

A person with a growth mindset would approach a challenging situation in their business as an opportunity to learn and improve their skills, while someone with a fixed mindset may see it as a threat to their abilities and become discouraged by the same information.

For example, a person with a growth mindset may view a negative customer review as a chance to identify areas of improvement and work towards providing better service, while someone with a fixed mindset may take the criticism personally and become defensive.

So, how can we go about developing a growth mindset in our business culture? Here are some tips:


Number 1: Encourage learning:

Provide opportunities for your team to learn new skills and expand their knowledge. This could be through training sessions, workshops or even just sharing articles and resources.

Number 2: Embrace failure:

Encourage your team to view failure as an opportunity to learn and grow, rather than a setback. Celebrate when someone tries something new, even if it doesn’t work out as planned.

Number 3: Foster collaboration:

Encourage your team to work together and share ideas. This can lead to new perspectives and insights, and also helps to build a culture of support and encouragement.

Number 4: Set goals:

Encourage your team to set goals for themselves and work towards them. This helps to create a sense of purpose and motivation, and also provides a framework for measuring progress.

Now, if you remember from earlier, I told you that I would outline a simple call to action that you could use to get everyone on your team on board with these changes to your business culture.


Here’s a simple outline that you can use to get everyone on your team on board with the change, and a call to action that will actively engage them and get them adopt the changes fast!

  1. explain the concept: Start by explaining the concept of a growth mindset and why it’s important for your business culture.
  2. Share: Share the tips we just discussed and encourage your team to think about how they can incorporate them into their work.
  3. Set some Achievable Goals: Set a team goal related to developing a growth mindset. This could be something like “By the end of the quarter, we will have completed two training sessions on new skills or topics.”
  4. Call to Action – Encourage success sharing: Encourage everyone to share their progress and successes, and celebrate when someone achieves a goal or tries something new. The result will be an environment of positivity and growth. Everyone will want to participate once they see the positivity and praise coming toward the first person to get noticed for the new improvements they have made. This will fuel the progress and foster the new atmosphere of positivity and joy, creating a lasting cultural change for a sustained growth environment.

By following these steps, you can help to create a culture of growth and development within your business.
