Comment: This connects well with Conversational Leadership. The work is not to impose a preferred mindset, but to create better conditions for people to think together, act together, and learn from what happens.Stop the paternalistic attempt to define how people think and engineer a XYZ culture and instead focus on creating and disrupting connections and engaging people in small actions in the here and now.
Mindset change smacks of indoctrination.
