    Growth Mindset

    What is Growth Mindset ?

     People with a growth mindset believe that a person’s true potential


    is unknown (and unknowable); that it’s impossible to foresee what
    can be accomplished with years of passion, toil, and training.
     For people with a fixed mindset every situation calls for a
    confirmation of their intelligence, personality, or character.
    Growth and Fixed

    Growth Mindset Fixed Mindset


     Intelligence can be Developed  Intelligence Is Fixed
     Skills come From Practice  Skills are inherent and Cannot
     Failure is Feedback in the Be Learned
    Learning Process  Failure is Devastating and
     Flaws Are places to improve Even Debilitating
     Flaws are Embracing
    6 steps to adopting a growth mindset

    Focus on Learning
     Seek out the best sources of information from within and outside the
    profession and focus on learning from the best. Read books,
    industry publications and quality blogs.
     Listen to podcasts and attend conferences.
     There is a lot of information out there, so work on developing the
    skill of identifying the best and avoiding the rest.
    Choose the right role models
     Take inspiration from thought leaders and innovators in the
    profession.
     Follow them on social media and attend the same events.
     Try to model their way of thinking and adapt their mindset in a way
    that fits you.
    Challenge your current beliefs
     One of the most critical steps in changing your mindset is
    acknowledging that you have a fixed mindset – at least in some areas.
     Look at your current belief system and identify where you have self-
    limiting beliefs.
     Acknowledging this isn’t shameful – it’s human. Shine a light on the
    roadblocks you’re putting up for yourself and work on turning them
    around.
    Set a vision and define goals
     Creating a vision and setting goals can help provide the motivation
    you need to move from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset.
     What do you want to achieve in the next year? Five years? Ten
    years? Get a clear picture of where you want to be and then break
    your vision down into goals that will help you reach it.
    See failures as opportunities
     People with a growth mindset know that failure is a necessary stop
    on the road to success.
     When faced with failure, they see it as an opportunity to change
    tactics or apply extra effort to improve results.
    Be authentic
     A growth mindset demands authenticity in how you think and act.
    Know who you are and what you’re all about.
     You don’t have to put on a perfect front to others.
     Don’t be afraid to be yourself and let your values be known to
    others.
     When you are open and honest in your interactions with others,
    people know where they stand with you and trust you.
    Conclusion
     To innovate and think differently, accountants need to adjust their
    mindsets.
     But realize that a growth mindset isn’t the only ingredient for success –
    it’s just the first step.
     You also need to do the work of transforming yourself and your firm to
    become future-ready.
     Having a growth mindset doesn’t guarantee success – it just opens the
    door to getting there.
     It’s a process that involves mindset, goals and action that leads to results.
    “ Any one who has never
    made a mistake has never
    tried anything new. ”
    -Albert Einstein
