Your mindset...
is the key to how you perceive the world...
which drives your decisions...
which drive your actions.
What we discovered

The fixed and growth mindset is not a binary concept. It is a continuum where the two end zones show predominantly growth or fixed tendencies, but the middle zone is where one can display either mindsets, depending on context.

The fixed mindset is not necessarily bad and neither is the growth mindset necessarily good. They are driven by behaviours that may be appropriate or inappropriate for a given context.

There are five drivers of the growth mindset called Dimensions. Each Dimension describes a set of behaviours that, when come together, describe a person's total mindset. The Dimensions are Learning, Bounce Back, Risk Taking, Forward and Pride.

Each person has a unique mindset profile based on the 5 Dimensions. There are theoretically 312.5 million different profiles. This means that different people will respond differently to the same situation based on their perspectives.

The uniqueness of your mindset is shaped by your job scope, responsibilities, values, culture, experience, education, knowledge and skills. It also means that mindset can change by changing the operating environment.
What the 5 Dimensions of the Growth Mindset are

LEARNING
Learning through doing allows the one to uncover what works and what doesn't through objective testing, recalibrating and fine-tuning.

BOUNCE BACK
The ability to recover from setbacks and move ahead is a hallmark of one's resilience - so important in growth!

RISK TAKING
To go out and learn requires one to risk being wrong, to risk being laughed at, to risk losing. Being comfortable putting oneself on the line to learn is key to growth.

FORWARD
Ultimately, to learn and grow, we need to move forward. We can do it in a planned approach, or an evolving approach. No approach is better, it just depends on the situation

PRIDE
Rather than pronouncing that we know better, to get growth, we need to suspend judgement and instruction and uncover what is really occurring and working from there.

What people say about the 5DGM assessment

Eunice, Malaysia
At first, I thought it's just another psychology assessment, which I've done plenty of. However, it was a truly surprising and amazing one to one coaching session for me. It's interesting to find out if the extent of my growth mindset fit what my job requires and which growth area do I need to work on to excel in my current role or the future role that I wish to embark on. I appreciate Ian and Jessie for arranging this session for me.

Shee Wei, Malaysia
I learned a lot about myself which has been undiscovered all these while. It helps me to understand where my strengths are and the area that I actually need to improve. I would also like to thank Ian for the detailed explanation and advice. I'm looking forward to the upcoming workshop and can't wait for the day to come.

Kimberley, Malaysia
This assessment helps me to understand better where I am lacking and in which area I should grow myself more in order to make better progress in my life. What I like the most is there are follow-up sessions and e-book that guide me on the next step to overcome the problem.
