  • A Decade of Growth Mindset
    Over a decade ago, we wondered: how can we scale what we've learned about coaching, continuous improvement and the science of motivation for the enterprise context?
    That question led us to introduce the Growth Mindset thinking framework to large-scale organizations. Now, we aid millions in practicing shared everyday habits that turn challenges into opportunities and problems into progress.
    In this episode of #YourBrainAtWorkLive, Dr. David Rock connects with Ryan Curl, Ph.D. (Researcher, NLI) to explore how the science of resilience, motivation and learning can equip leaders to build "genius cultures" where people are primed to thrive.
