Changing your Mindset will Change your Results

Learning to understand how concepts about the world effect behavior and how concepts of yourself and others can be changed, in order to create better results

Theoretical background: Working in an knowledge intensive environment involves playing with mindsets. A mindset is a mental construct, an essential building block in human information processing. It helps you to understand the world and complex problems in particular. It also plays a central role in gaining acceptance of others for your insights. Mindsets are not only beneficial, they can also cause trouble in cases in which you can't solve a problem you think is solvable. Mindsets of other's play a crucial role in recognizing the value of your new ideas.

 

Einstein once said: "You can´t solve a problem within the frame of reference that is used to define it." Stated in a positive way: if the frame of reference can be changed, you can perceive the same facts in a different way and different solutions become available.
