Breakthrough Idea Award To succeed in a fast-changing world individuals and companies know
they must create a culture of growth where experimentation and feedback are encouraged and
learning is integrated into the everyday. Yet we often get stuck in a well-worn pattern of
habits that don’t move us forward. Why? Because many of us get trapped in the Performance
Paradox : the counterintuitive phenomenon that if we focus only on performing our performance
suffers. How can we give ourselves the space to experiment and grow while also delivering
high-level results? Fostering growth mindset to elevate performance is Eduardo Briceño’s
specialty. As CEO of Mindset Works and in his work with Fortune 500 companies he discovered
that mastering growth—personal organizational and financial—hinges on navigating the crucial
balance between learning and performing. In The Performance Paradox Briceño reveals how to •
avoid falling into the chronic performance trap that stagnates growth • identify when and how
to unlock the power of mistakes • integrate learning into daily habits in ways that stick •
lead teams that constantly improve and outperform their targets • grow your skill level and
output simultaneously and for the long term We can achieve more tomorrow than we do today if
we develop the belief that we can change and the competence for how to change. With Briceño’s
innovative and refreshing framework of balancing learning and performing individuals and
companies can reach their boldest aspirations.
