Show Notes
This is Tim Brown and this is the Extra Mile, Positivity During COVID-19. Today I want to talk about why Grit is so important for company culture.
Angela Duckworth says “If you want to be grittier, find a gritty culture and join it. If you can not find it, then create it.” - company culture forms our identity - just like you become the top 5 people you hang around, If you have a culture where people persevere, and are better after a problem happens than before... you will start to own that ideal as well.
- Encouraging people to have difficult conversation. Allow people to have those conversation
- Allow people to make mistakes, grow from them, allow people feel their mistakes.
Grittiness, and hardiness get things done, mental toughness is not a nice to have, but a crucial component of emotional maturity. And we could all use a little mor of that, especially during this time.
