What mindset do I need to succeed in this course?
A growth mindset!
Understanding that you don't know everything is an important place to start. Then: be insatiable! Learn as much as you possibly can about leadership by reading everything you can, watching videos, listening to podcasts, etc. Who you are now is NOT who you will always be, so embrace growth.
Side note: Take advantage of opportunities to lead and learn as much as possible from experience as well. Watch every leader you know and decide what makes them a good/bad leader (bear in mind that nobody's perfect!), and then you'll know what works and what doesn't.
