Improvement Mindsets

Changing attitudes that directly impact improvement

The mindsets we take toward improving our organization have a profound amplifying effect, either positive or negative, on the results we achieve.

You’ve seen the positive impact of effective mindsets when you and others have brought them to a situation where you are trying to make something better.

  • Challenges are not roadblocks, just opportunities to tackle

  • The work takes less time as there is a sense of urgency to get it done

  • More aggressive goals are set, not only the bare minimum

  • And victories, large and small, are celebrated.

You’ve also been there when the ineffective and negative mindsets take over, and the work you are doing is just a painful drag.


Having a more effective mindset more often

Mindsets are not an option of “right” vs “wrong”. Even the most effective individuals can sometimes slip into ineffective mindsets. A great way to start improving is to recognize when you fall into an ineffective mindset and then make an active effort to shift positively. Even a small change can amplify your organization since effective mindsets magnify results positively and make it possible for you to overcome those seemingly impossible challenges.
