Summary: Health and wellness is becoming increasingly important in any workplace. In most cases, an all-around healthy employee has a higher level of work performance than an employee that is mentally and physically unhealthy. Employees with a growth mindset show a willingness to learn new things in order to make changes to better themselves, those around them, and the company they are a part of.  

Challenge: Not everyone holds the belief that you have the capacity to learn and grow throughout your life and career. It’s important to educate employees on what it means to have a growth mindset and that no matter your age or stage of your career you are capable of making changes and growing to new heights.  

Solution: After this training employees understand the term growth mindset, the research behind it, and what steps they can take to begin acquiring a growth mindset. They are open to taking this journey in order to grow as an individual, as well as a team member working towards an all-around healthier workplace. 

Results: Employees felt empowered to try new things. They took initiative to engage in new learning. They took feedback as a way to grow in their new learning. They are up for any challenge given to them.
