Grit isn’t one of those words that you hear very often today when it comes to leadership. These days we’re hearing more around emotional intelligence and someone possessing the “secret sauce” to leadership success. However, Angela Duckworth, the psychologist and researcher who coined the term, defines grit as passion and perseverance for long-term and meaningful goals. It’s the ability to persist in something you feel passionate about and persevere when you face obstacles. In this engaging course, participants will discuss what grit is, how it relates to one’s growth mindset and the importance it plays in the success of our lives and careers.
