As companies of all sizes seek to drive valuation, they often encounter challenges that can lead to a disconnect between the steps they are taking to grow and succeed in the market and the results they are delivering for their customers, employees, shareholders, and communities. For business leaders, adopting a growth mindset and a “learn-it-all” culture (rather than a “know-it-all” culture) may be the key to overcoming these challenges and enjoying continued success.

As founder of the world-renowned Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO), which has over 18,000 members globally, Verne Harnish has chaired EO’s premier CEO program held at MIT for 15 years, and has spent the past four decades helping companies to scale up. Verne is also the founder and CEO of Scaling Up, a global executive education and coaching company with over 293 partners on six continents. He’s the author of several best-selling books, including “Mastering the Rockefeller Habits,” “The Greatest Business Decisions of All Time,” and “Scaling Up.” As our guest in Episode 203 of The Mindset Game® podcast, Verne discusses the following:

• Why it’s crucial for business leaders to adopt a learning-oriented growth mindset and get truly inquisitive about how their companies are running, such as by connecting energetically with employees and customers 
• Tips for navigating the growth paradox, which often presents more complexity, challenges, and bureaucracy as companies grow larger 
• Insights from nature that can help companies scale up – not only in terms of financial success, but also in contributing to a healthier, happier, more sustainable world
