Fixed Vs. Growth Mindset: Differences, Outcomes & Limitations

In a world where competition is at an all time high, everyone needs to continually work at bettering their talents and themselves. Through discoveries in psychology, economics, and management, many techniques have been developed to help improve soft skills and personal qualities. Both young entrepreneurs and salaried workers have made many improvements in big business. Every experienced employee of multinational corporations and large banks relies on innovation in their professional activities.

An employee’s personal psychology determines how they will perceive themselves, how their colleagues will perceive them, and finally, how quickly they will advance in their career. Their way of thinking determines how successful they will be. It is one of the keys, and sometimes the most decisive factor, when large companies decide to hire someone. So what type of mindset do companies look for? Psychologists distinguish two types of thinking: A fixed mindset, which is a conservative, out-dated way of thinking, and a growth mindset, in which everything that happens is not a threat but rather an opportunity for development.

Check out the infographic below, with a detailed comparison of these two types of thinking, and decide which kind of thinking can help you in your personal and professional life.
