Abstract

Mindset plays a significant role in individual and organizational growth. Mindset is all about thinking patterns, personal attributes, and cognitive competencies of an individual. Ability to focus on goals plays a significant role in personal and professional success. A growth mindset is a necessary component in order to thrive in a digital work environment, specifically in organizations and institutions which are increasingly being driven by artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence has been found to be extremely useful in running current organizations, but in this chapter, I present a case for mindset that is human-centered, which supersedes artificial intelligence competencies in the workplace. This chapter further explores the current challenges of individual and business organizations that hinder a human-centered mindset in a digital age. It includes a discussion on the importance of right mindset in managing digital technology, specifically artificial intelligence with moral reasoning to lead individuals and organizations in the right direction. Overall, the ability of the human mind to think and reason plays a pivotal role in individual and organizational success in a digital age. Thus, mindset plays a significant role in the implementation of artificial intelligence in business and social contexts.
