Growth Mindset in Medicine: Expert Insights from Anna Brandt

56 minutes

In this week's episode of Promising Young Surgeon, we explore the critical yet often overlooked skills of interpersonal effectiveness and the impact of mindset on professional growth. Dr. Frances Mei Hardin kicks off the discussion by delving into the importance of interpersonal effectiveness skills, which she believes are as crucial as clinical expertise for a successful medical career. She introduces three key concepts—DEAR MAN, FAST, and GIVE—that can help physicians navigate complex interactions and maintain professional relationships.

Later in this episode, we are joined by Anna Brandt, an instructional designer at Metro Health Hospital System, who shares her insights on fixed versus growth mindsets and the art of giving and receiving feedback. Anna draws from her extensive experience in education and training to highlight how a growth mindset can transform the way medical professionals approach challenges, setbacks, and continuous learning. She also provides practical advice for fostering a culture of constructive feedback within healthcare teams.
