After someone narrows down their options and makes a commitment to follow a particular path, they will have an implemental mindset. People with an implemental mindset are less open to alternative courses of action because they have already decided what they are going to do and now focus more energy on goal striving, rather than goal setting.

NA - Advances in Consumer Research. 40: 58–61. The defensive mindset is closed, self-protective and self-deceptive. It does not see the greater good, but centers on individual defense; truth, if perceived as harmful to the person concerned, would be denied. This may allow personal growth, but no organizational growth or development. [60] Deliberative and implemental mindsets [ edit ]

This is not a unique occurrence—many climate change policies ended up having unintended consequences. In 2005, the The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change launched an incentive scheme to cut down on greenhouse gases. The programme rewarded companies for destroying certain pollutants, and set the prices according to how serious the harm the pollutant could do to the environment. One of the highest bounties was attributed to HFC-23, a byproduct of a common coolant. Hope, Joan (January 2022). "Adopt an abundance mindset to boost your leadership potential".

Erik H. Erikson's analysis of group-identities and what he calls a "life-plan" is relevant to a collective mindset. Erikson cites Native Americans who were meant to undergo a reeducation process to instill a modern "life-plan" which advocated housing and wealth; the natives' collective historic identity as buffalo hunters was oriented around such fundamentally different motivations that communication about life plans was difficult. [19] Hattie, John (2012). Visible learning for teachers: Maximizing impact on learning. New York: Taylor and Francis. A study conducted by Fiona S. Seaton (2018) examined the impact of teacher training to influence mindset. The teachers in this study had six training sessions, and Seaton found that the sessions had an impact on their mindsets which was sustained three months afterward. [50] The results of this study suggest that adult mindsets are malleable, and can shift with appropriate supports. [50] Benefit mindset [ edit ] People with an abundance mindset believe that there are enough resources for everyone, and see the glass as half-full; those with a scarcity mindset believe that there is a limited number of resources, and see the glass as half-empty. [57] Mehta and Zhu found that an "abundance mindset makes people think beyond established functionalities to explore broadly for solutions, thereby heightening creativity. In contrast, a scarcity mindset induces functional fixedness, thereby reducing creativity." [58] Productive and defensive mindsets [ edit ] Parallels exist in collective intelligence [16] and the wisdom of the crowd. [17] Zara said that since collective reflection is more explicit, discursive, and conversational, it needs a good Gestell. [18]a. Focus and Precision: The Cobra mindset emphasizes the ability to focus intensely on goals and objectives. Like a cobra fixated on its target, individuals with this mindset possess a laser-like focus that enables them to channel their energy towards achieving their desired outcomes. An institution is related to collective mindset; an entrepreneurial mindset refers to a person who "values uncertainty in the marketplace and seeks to continuously identify opportunities with the potential to lead to important innovations". [20] An institution with an entrepreneurial philosophy will have entrepreneurial goals and strategies. It fosters an entrepreneurial milieu, allowing each entity to pursue emerging opportunities. A collective mindset fosters values which lead to a particular practice. Hitt cites the five dimensions of an entrepreneurial mindset as "autonomy, innovativeness, risk taking, proactiveness, and competitive aggressiveness". [21] Theories [ edit ] The main way to avoid the Cobra Effect is to keep away from linear thinking—when our thinking proceeds in a sequential manner. Because a straight line between two points is the most efficient way to get from one place to another, linear thinking feels like the most intuitive way to solve a problem. But it’s often not the right way. Grit, the combination of determination and perseverance, is related to a growth mindset. [31] Keown and Bourke discussed the importance of a growth mindset and grit. Their 2019 study found that people with lower economic status had a greater chance of success if they had a growth mindset and were willing to work through tribulation. [32]

[59] [60] The productive mindset is hinged in logic, focused on knowledge and its certifiable results–a decision-making mindset which is transparent and auditable. [60] a.
