DISCOVER THE MINDSET FOR ACHIEVING SUCCESS
World-renowned Stanford University psychologist Carol Dweck, in decades of research on achievement and success, has discovered a truly groundbreaking idea – the power of our mindset.
Professor Dweck explains why it’s not just our abilities and talent that bring us success – but whether we approach our goals with a fixed or growth mindset. With the right mindset, we can motivate our children to raise their grades, as well as reaching our own goals – both personal and professional.
Mindset reveals what all great parents, teachers, CEOs and athletes already know: how a simple idea about the brain can foster learning and nurture the resilience that is the basis of accomplishment in every area.
This revised and updated edition includes new material on organisational mindsets and on opening yourself up to growth, and addresses common misconceptions about growth mindsets.

Reviews
If you manage people or are a parent (which is a form of managing people), drop everything and read Mindset
An utterly compelling story of how the way we think shapes our success. Essential reading for anyone with aspirations
Through clever research studies and engaging writing, Dweck illuminates how our beliefs about our capabilities exert tremendous influence on how we learn and which paths we take in life
A good book is one whose advice you believe. A great book is one whose advice you follow. I have found Carol Dweck's work on mindsets invaluable in my own life, and even life-changing in my attitudes toward the challenges that, over the years, become more demanding rather than less. This is a book that can change your life, as its ideas have changed mine
Everyone should read this book
An essential read for parents, teachers [and] coaches . . . as well as for those who would like to increase their own feelings of success and fulfillment
One of the most influential books ever about motivation
