Has the science behind the concept of the growth mindset been independently verified or is it just a bunch of corporate mumbo jumbo?

Is growth mindset a falsifiable theory?

A little of both. If you are managing a business, it is literally your job to think, to learn, to read market news, to develop new skills, to question whether rearranging the factory floor will increase productivity, hiring practices, whether to take on more employees to offset the risk of one being sick, to anticipate and size up risks, to figure out whether any shipments and a small warehouse is more economical than a large warehouse and few shipments. On the other hand, it is not a strict scientific theorem, it is more like a general observation, a suggestion.

The "growth mindset" is a made-up, corporate buzzword used to describe the real phenomena of growing your skills and capability. The buzzword is a means of achieving three things. Firstly, it gives HR roasties a subjective criteria to weaponise, and you'll never pass a purity test somebody wants you to fail. Secondly, it's a commonly understood term that gives marketers a mechanism to sell dumb niggercattle shit they don't need. Thirdly, it makes everybody in society fatter, gayer and more stupid the more it is used.

so this is like DEI? An unachievable goal, used to instill a feeling of inferiority into the gullible workforce?

Most of the research done by Carol Dweck and Co. involved children as the subject. How did this get extrapolated into adults?

what do you mean by growth? the thing that pushes people to better themselves or the thing that pushes companies and governments to make the line go up?

It was recently tested for validity, but the effect was minimal. IMHO, personality is a better predictor of outcomes. Mindset only goes so far...

You wouldn't know that if you listened to Harvard Business Review (or your own HR department)

This is why I only trust freshly dug up psych papers from hardcore science journals. I skim through the new stuff every month. Gotta stay sharp and keep that edge. Anything those biz bros are pushing is probably two decades stale and totally retarded.
