Growth Mindset · 1 or 2 days
“I can’t do that.”
Add one word: yet.
Teams don’t stall for lack of talent. They stall when mistakes get hidden, feedback feels like criticism and “we’ve always done it this way” wins the argument. This workshop builds a shared language for growth, and the practical tools to reframe setbacks and turn feedback into fuel.
Me · Us · Organisation
Growth at every level, not just personal motivation
Your real challenges
Practised on the situations your team actually faces
A Growth Charter
Agreed behaviours the team commits to and can see
Sound familiar?
“We’re doing double the work now.”
“Nobody wants to be the one who made the mistake.”
“Feedback here feels like criticism, so we avoid it.”
A growth mindset hears the same situation differently: “We’re learning how to work together on both.”
What changes
From fixed reactions to growth responses.
01
Reframe the challenge
Use the ABCDE model to question the beliefs behind a reaction and turn obstacles into opportunities to grow.
02
Give and receive feedback well
The DELACT model for courageous conversations in every direction: peer to peer, upward and downward.
03
Build a growth culture
Define what growth looks and sounds like in your team’s daily routines, then commit to it in a shared Growth Charter.
