MINDSET AND COMPANY CULTURE “We know from our studies that people with the fixed mindset do not admit and correct their deficiencies. And a company that cannot self-correct cannot survive . . . Instead of learning, growing, and moving the company forward, everyone starts worrying about being judged . . . It’s hard for courage and innovation to survive a company-wide fixed mindset.”

BELIEFS THAT BLOCK COMMUNICATION
Communication issues will sort themselves out. Communicating isn’t a priority—there are more important things to do for the business. Conflict is to be avoided at all costs. Sharing about vulnerability = weakness.

o Avoiding reality/evasion o Being unaware of reality o Conflict as blood sport o Wanting to be “nice” o Holding back the truth o Blaming others

FROM AVOIDANCE TO ENGAGEMENT
Rather than relating to tension or conflict as “bad,” what if instead they were indicators that something’s out of alignment and that there’s an opportunity to evolve?

FROM AVOIDANCE TO ENGAGEMENT
And how often might our high emotions be a result of coming from a Fixed mindset?
