Half-Day Workshops
Cultivating Growth Mindset to Endure (Enjoy!) Challenge and Navigate Change, for Nonprofit Teams
We routinely navigate change, from shifting funder requirements or policy environments to new software or changing service models. How we respond to the challenges of change becomes crucial to success and well-being, and that comes from our mindset. After defining Growth and Fixed Mindsets, their relation to effort and challenge, and the brain science behind them, this session will establish a practice of Growth Mindset through reflection and discussion. Using scenarios, participants will learn how Growth Mindset opens opportunities for improved service quality, team communication, and organization-wide adaptability. We will explore common Fixed Mindset triggers (we all have them!) and connect Organizational Change to both triggers and challenge. The session will close by focusing on individual action to cultivate an aligned organizational culture. Participants will come away with new insight into their personal Fixed Mindset triggers and key strategies for recognizing and shifting mindsets.
- This workshop is a good fit to build on basic trust and psychological safety:
- Prepare your team for an upcoming big change or recognize ongoing change demands
- Train mindset for quality improvement efforts
- Aim toward more joy and engagement organization-wide
