Praise versus Encouragement- Applicable Business and Family Lessons from a Special Educator

11/24/2010

2 Comments

 
I wanted to clarify the dangers of Praise and suggest why using  Encouragement is better for both parents and business professionals. My beliefs are validated by the research of Dr. Carol Dweck  , an Educational Psychologist from Stanford University . 
You might find her website mindset.org and book Mindset helpful for both the family and business environments.

In 2010, I published this  professional development article on my Dr. Brenda E. Abbey  Biznik site. In this article , I pointed out the difference between Praise and Encouragement and how this would be helpful in building an entrepreneur's social intelligence assets.
I was excited to initially  have my article picked for the Biznik Weekly Hot Article list and  as of the  SUMMER 2014  it remains popular for parents and business**  having been read by over  6200 people.

You can read the entire article by visiting the link below. 
I would welcome your thoughts.
