Mary C. Murphy

Mary C. Murphy is a social psychologist and endowed professor at Indiana University.

Her work builds upon Carol Dweck's research on fixed and growth mindsets, focusing on how these mindsets manifest within organizational cultures.

Murphy's research demonstrates that mindsets are fluid and can change based on environmental factors.

She emphasizes the importance of creating "Cultures of Growth" rather than "Cultures of Genius" in various settings, including businesses and educational institutions.

Murphy provides practical strategies for leaders to implement growth-oriented approaches in their organizations.

Her book is seen as a significant contribution to the field of organizational psychology and leadership development.
