How can we prepare for failure that is inevitable, but not wholly predictable? Through “failing forward.”
Failure is natural, universal, inevitable and many other things depending on how you view it, learn from it and move forward. These tips can help.
“Fail fast, fail forward” isn’t really trying to highlight failure, but the success that is born out of straight-up messing up.
Does your workplace have a safe space to share stories of failure?
Fear of failure is a barrier to creating change and improving processes.
Some managers are hampering the next generation of leaders because they are not taking the time to teach them. Letting employees fail is key to growth.
This notion of a high tolerance for failure honestly does not make any sense. We become educated, get training in our jobs and search for a mentor so that we can be successful in our careers. Companies and governments do not hire employees to fail.
Being honest about your failings can lead to a better interview and a better job.
May we be less terrified and more inspired as we dance into our future.
