Award-winning social psychologist Mary Murphy offers a groundbreaking reconsideration of individual and team successshowing how to create and sustain a growth mindset in any organizations culture. Carol Dwecks multi-million-copy bestseller Mindset transformed our view of individual potential, coining the terms fixed and growth mindset: in a fixed mindset, talent and intelligence are viewed as predetermined traits, while in a growth mindset, talent and intelligence can be nurtured. In Cultures of Growth, Dwecks protg, 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.

They are also less likely to cheat, cut corners, or steal each others ideas. And theyre more likely to achieve top results. In these cultures, great ideas come from people from all backgrounds and at all levelsnot just those anointed as brilliant or talented.

Drawing on compelling examples from her work with Fortune 500 companies, startups, and schools, Murphy demonstrates that an organizations mindset culture is the key to success for individuals, teams, and the entire organization, teaching you how to create and sustain a culture of growth no matter your role.
