“James Dyson worked his way through 5,127 prototypes while his competitors didn’t get through the first hundred, not because he was more intelligent, but because he was more resilient. Likewise, Beckham and Jordan may have been born with admirable athletic qualities, but these would have meant little without a Growth Mindset.
And this is really the point. A growth-oriented culture is not a naïvely optimistic, wishy-washy, we-are-all-winners approach to business or life. And it is certainly not a trope of egalitarian sensibilities. Rather, it is a cutting-edge approach to organizational psychology based upon the most basic scientific principle of all: we progress fastest when we face up to failure—and learn from it.”
