Harnessing Change for Leaders: Fixed Mindset vs Growth Mindset!
Successful people aren't just born that way. Even those with natural talent have to work at success. But why do some talented people go nowhere, while others with average abilities have tremendous success?

In this presentation, Kristi outlines the concepts of grit and resilience, the difference between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset, and how you can put these ideas to work with specific steps.

When you shift your viewpoint you can make change a catalyst for growth and success. Learn the concepts of a growth mindset, grit, and resilience, with strategies & steps you can use right away.

Takeaways include:

• How to identify a fixed mindset vs a growth mindset
• Why your mindset matters
• Steps to change your own mindset
• Why grit is the foundation for success
• The four surprising components of grit – they aren’t what you would expect.

An interactive style and practical takeaways provide real results. Kristi’s workshop method fosters idea-generation and a solutions-oriented mindset, and participants leave with strategies and tactics to keep the momentum going

This event is open to the public! Non-members pay $15 in advance, or $20 at the door. Members attend free.
