Note from Kevin on The Secret to Raising Smart Kids
Greetings!
Right now you may be questioning whether or not you want to take your most valuable time to read an article on “raising kids.” Trust me on this one: reading this article is not only a good use of time but may do more to raise employee confidence and engagement than anything you read this year.
In this article author Carol Dweck does a masterful job of illustrating how two different mindsets around achievement are developed. Subtly and over time, as parents, we reinforce behavior (sound familiar?) that promotes either a “can do” or “don’t want to do” mentality. That drive for or aversion to achievement is directly related to how the child, and ultimately your employees, think.
