ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Carol Dweck - PsychologistCarol Dweck is a pioneering researcher in the field of motivation, why people succeed (or don't) and how to foster success.
Why you should listen
As Carol Dweck describes it: "My work bridges developmental psychology, social psychology, and personality psychology, and examines the self-conceptions (or mindsets) people use to structure the self and guide their behavior. My research looks at the origins of these mindsets, their role in motivation and self-regulation, and their impact on achievement and interpersonal processes."
Dweck is a professor at Stanford and the author of Mindset, a classic work on motivation and "growth mindset." Her work is influential among educators and increasingly among business leaders as well.
