The Growth Mindset – A Key Tool For Success In Human Resources

We live in a world more volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous than ever before. Mindset not skill set is key to thriving and growing. What could you and your team achieve with a mindset of Growth that underpins higher levels of adaptability, learning agility, resilience and engagement? Do you and your team show up in a way that supports a climate of Growth and Psychological Safety?

A mindset of Growth is fundamental to being more adaptable and resilient, and for building powerful relationships built on openness, trust and accountability.

Do you and your team have the mindset to thrive and grow?

Our research found that when UK professionals have a mindset of Growth, they have significantly higher levels of resilience, wellbeing, self-responsibility and learning agility.

However, prior to Covid-19 pandemic, only 37% of UK professionals had a mindset of Growth. A performance-limiting 63% were in Survival – a mindset associated with significantly lower levels of resilience, wellbeing and engagement, and a resistance to change, learning and self-responsibility.

When we’re in Survival, we tend to be defensive, judgmental and critical. We struggle to acknowledge our own strengths and accept compliments. We’re also more reactive, which frequently leads to overwhelm and, ultimately, emotional detachment. We become harsh to ourselves as well as others, often blaming others for our circumstances, and, at the same time, avoiding conflict and staying in our comfort zone.

When we are in Growth, we are much more curious and adaptable, present and compassionate – towards ourselves and others. We are proactive and solutions-focused, open to sharing and acting on what is true for us, and with that, stretching outside of our comfort zone.

Can you now imagine what you and your team could achieve if you consistently showed up with a Growth mindset?

Whether we create a culture of fear and blame where we don’t take responsibility for our performance and development and where many are working in siloes, or a culture of openness, honesty, proactiveness, innovation and collaboration, is down to individuals who create – and especially – lead that team or organisation.
