Book

Cultures of growth : how the new science of mindset can transform individuals, teams, and organizations / Mary C. Murphy.

Summary:

"Award-winning social psychologist Mary C. Murphy offers a ground-breaking reconsideration of individual and team success--showing how to create and sustain a growth mindset in any organization's culture." -- Inside dust jacket.

"In Cultures of Growth, Mary Murphy, a social psychologist at both Stanford and Indiana University, shows that mindset transcends individuals. A growth mindset culture can transform any group, team, or classroom to reach breakthroughs while also helping each person achieve their potential. Murphy's original decade-long research reveals that organizations and teams more geared toward growth inspire deeper learning, spark collaboration, spur innovation, and build trust necessary for risk-taking and inclusion. They are also less likely to cheat, cut corners, or steal each other's ideas. And they're more likely to achieve top results. In these cultures, great ideas come from people from all backgrounds and at all levels--not just those anointed as brilliant or talented." -- Adapted from publisher's description.
