 Angela Duckworth has devoted her professional life to enabling and providing pupils with the tools they need to realize their own potential. After working for a while as a K–12 teacher, Duckworth started her career in management consulting. Later, she turned her attention to psychology, utilizing the scientific method to connect theory and practice in the disciplines of psychology and education. Her scholarly contributions to these two domains have been significant. Her groundbreaking work on the concept of grit and her exploration of self-control, mindset, motivation, and character have allowed her to shatter illusions surrounding talent, giftedness, and natural ability while also expanding our understanding of effort and achievement. Angela Duckworth has devoted her professional life to enabling and providing pupils with the tools they need to realize their own potential.
