Trust in Trust and Why Focusing ONLY on Results Can Backfire on You (with Eduardo Briceño)

 

WHAT I'M WRITING ABOUT THIS WEEK

Trust in a team is not just a nice-to-have; it's the very foundation upon which successful teams and organizations are built. It is the thread that binds leaders and their teams, enabling them to navigate the complexities of today's business world. This week, let's explore how trust is gained and lost and why the pivotal roles of transparency, courage, and respect are crucial to forging a high-trust culture.

The Journey

Episode #455 Why Focusing ONLY on Results Can Backfire on You 

Eduardo Briceño is a global keynote speaker and facilitator who guides many of the world's leading companies in developing continuous improvement, innovation, and high-performance cultures. His TED talk, "How To Get Better At The Things You Care About," and his TEDx talk, "The Power of Belief," have been viewed more than nine million times. His book, The Performance Paradox: Turning the Power of Mindset into Action, was selected as a "Must Read" by the Next Big Idea Club and was shortlisted for the Thinkers50 Breakthrough Idea Award, given to thinkers who "have ignited Eureka moments in management, offering radical ideas that have the potential to reshape the future of business as we know it." His work has been featured in Harvard Business Review, Big Think, Business Insider, Entrepreneur, Fast Company, Forbes, Inc., Quartz, and others.

 

Earlier in his career, Eduardo was the co-founder and CEO of Mindset Works, the pioneer in growth mindset development services, which he started with Stanford professor Carol Dweck and led for over a decade. Before that, he was a venture capital investor with the Sprout Group and served on several for-profit and nonprofit boards. Before that, he was an investment banking analyst with Credit Suisse. He is a Pahara-Aspen Fellow, an Aspen Institute's Global Leadership Network member, and an inductee into the Happiness Hall of Fame.

 

Originally from Caracas, Venezuela, Eduardo holds bachelor's degrees in economics and engineering from the University of Pennsylvania, as well as an MBA and M.A. in education from Stanford University. Most importantly, he continues to enjoy lifelong learning every day.

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Performance vs. Learning Zones: To grow and reach new levels, we need to balance time in the performance zone (executing as well as we currently can) with time in the learning zone (deliberately practicing skills and stretching beyond our comfort zone).

  • Growth Mindset: Cultivating a growth mindset - the belief that we can improve our abilities through effective effort - is key to motivation, resilience, and achievement. We also need to know how to change and have a strong sense of purpose.

  • Creating Growth Cultures: Leaders can transform their teams and organizations by fostering a learning culture. This requires modeling growth behaviors, providing resources and support, and aligning systems around improvement.

  • Productivity Paradox: Focusing relentlessly on productivity can backfire. Building in time for exploration, reflection and recovery actually fuels better performance in the long-run. Declutter to focus on what matters most.

  • Transcending Positionality: To solve our biggest challenges, we must be willing to question our assumptions, engage with different perspectives, and iteratively test solutions. Staying stuck in fixed positions limits progress.

WHAT I'M READING

The Presence Process

by Michael Brown

invites us to explore our emotional response with conscious awareness as a better way of living. This simple procedure makes it possible for anyone, anywhere, to transform the quality of their emotional life experience from uncontrollable reactivity to deliberate responsibility, which is a skill that is part of living an Unbeatable lifestyle.

 

WHAT'S INSPIRING ME

I am working on developing a Likert Scale, "Unbeatable Mind Five Plateau Assessment," as part of a PhD course. This requires a validity test against other instruments. The survey has 100 questions, each addressing one of the five plateaus of consciousness (Survivor, Protector, Achiever, Equalizer, and Integrator). If you have an extra 30 minutes (I know, a big ask!) Please help me; thank you! Click here to take the survey.

 

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

PRACTICE OR HABIT TO TRY

Trust Meditation: This week, dedicate five days to reflect on trust for 10 minutes daily. Begin by journaling about your personal understanding of trust, its origins, and whether it aligns with your current beliefs. Subsequently, use the remaining days to delve into moments in your life where you cultivated self-trust. Trust, a fundamental component of human relationships and personal growth, evolves through introspection and experience, shaping our perceptions and actions.
