Um olhar inovador sobre o que está por trás do sucesso individual e das equipes. Prefácio de Carol Dweck, autora de Mindset. “Leitura essencial para criar uma cultura que promova inovação, integridade, inclusão e capacidade de assumir riscos.” – Angela Duckworth, autora de Garra “Pioneira na pesquisa sobre o mindset dos ambientes de trabalho, Mary Murphy criou um roteiro útil, envolvente e baseado em evidências para construir organizações voltadas para o aprendizado.” – Adam Grant, autor de Potencial oculto Discípula da psicóloga Carol Dweck na Universidade Stanford, Mary Murphy escreveu este livro para mostrar que os mindsets fixo e de crescimento não se restringem a pessoas: também se aplicam às equipes – seja em uma empresa, um time esportivo ou mesmo uma família. A autora conduziu uma pesquisa de mais de uma década sobre como o mindset das organizações influencia a postura e o desempenho de seus colaboradores, bem como o resultado dos negócios. Segundo ela, organizações orientadas para o mindset de crescimento estimulam um aprendizado mais profundo, incentivam a colaboração e a inovação e constroem relações de confiança. Nessas culturas, grandes ideias surgem de pessoas de todos os níveis hierárquicos, e não apenas de indivíduos considerados brilhantes ou talentosos, como é comum nas organizações de mindset fixo. Você vai conhecer exemplos inspiradores de empresas, escolas e startups que redirecionaram seus esforços para formar culturas de crescimento, como a Microsoft sob a gestão de Satya Nadella e a Shell diante do desafio da energia do futuro. Em um mundo no qual o sucesso parece reservado a poucos, este livro ensina a moldar ambientes onde as pessoas queiram estar, possam prosperar e atinjam seu potencial máximo, tanto individual quanto coletivamente.
