In this Partnering Leadership conversation, Mahan Tavakoli speaks with Eduardo Briceño, author of The Performance Paradox: Turning the Power of Mindset into Action. In the discussion, Eduardo dives into the transformative power of a growth mindset and how we can apply it to unlock our potential. He shares how a crippling physical injury early in his career led him to Carol Dweck's pioneering work on a growth mindset. This proved life-changing for Eduardo, setting him on a path to teaching individuals, teams, and organizations how to break free of chronic stagnation. In the conversation, Eduardo Briceno explains the performance paradox, where focusing solely on performing without learning leads to poor results. He offers strategies for leaders to get their teams to embrace a growth mindset. 

 

Some of the Growth Mindset Takeaways That Will Get You Thinking:

 

  • Why integrating micro-learning into daily work trumps sporadic learning sessions. 
  • Learn how to distinguish positive stretch mistakes from dangerous high-stakes ones.  
  • How leaders can model a growth mindset openly to influence their teams. 
  • The role a culture alignment and tweaking existing systems plays in helping teams adopt a growth mindset.
  • The type of accountability that matters for both learning and performing.
