This class covers three main topics around Growth Mindset:

You'll learn what makes a good project and the questions that you need to ask yourself in order to grow personally. You'll learn how to tackle project challenges by applying concepts to solve problems positively. You'll learn about continuous improvement cycles in projects and the power of the retrospective. Finally you'll learn about leading a project with a growth mindset and the influence that this can have on others, motivating and inspiring teams to both deliver and have growth mindsets themselves.

No prior knowledge will be needed for this class but it will naturally be framed towards those running projects. The skills you'll learn in this class will teach you to think differently. To be retrospective and to learn - ultimately you'll be able to apply these skills to all aspects of life.
