The Growth Mindset: How Product Leaders Can Establish a Culture for Learning

Establishing a product culture that includes the growth mindset is essential for being a market leader. There’s little debate about that. But the question of how to assess a product team’s capacity to learn is a bit more complicated.

The growth mindset is a concept developed by sociologist Carol Dweck, with applications everywhere from the classroom to the athletic field to the boardroom. How does it apply to the world of product?

Think about the following three questions and how they apply to your team. The answers you generate should give you a good sense of where your team stands in relation to the growth mindset.

1. Does your product team do what it takes to learn and challenge assumptions?

2. Are you able to have a blameless post mortem to learn from what didn’t work?

3. Can you replicate successes in other situations?
