March 22, 2017

On this week’s show we talk Grit and Growth Mindset with two leaders in their respective fields. Dr. Paul G. Stoltz is 38 years researching what makes the successful soar. He is founder and CEO of peaklearning.com and author of 5 books on GRIT and AQ, Adversity Quotient. Paul is considered the world's leading authority on the integration and application of grit, AQ and resilience. His newest book, GRIT — The New Science of What it Takes to Persevere, Flourish, Succeed is available now, in which he pioneers the first construct for growing both the quantity and quality of one's GRIT. We also speak to power achiever Dr. Phillip Matthews. Phillip is ex-British and Irish Lions captain, holds a PhD, has been a sales leader, MD, CEO and now focuses on executive coaching. Growth Mindset is at the heart of Phillip’s work, but also in his heart. It is what drives him to continuous success and now he wants to pass on the framework so that others can succeed.
