There is a deep rooted belief in our culture that success means never failing, and failure is a bad thing. Harvard professor and researcher Amy Edmondson argues that not all mistakes are the same — and some can even be beneficial. It all starts with learning how to fail smarter.
Known for her ground-breaking work on psychological safety, Big Think+ enthusiastically welcomes Amy to the community with her new 8-part class on the science of failing well. In this class, you’ll learn how to reframe your approach to failure, minimize basic failures, and lead a healthy failure culture at your organization. As Amy shares, “we all make mistakes, and failure is part of the journey towards success.”
We’re excited to see how Amy and other world-class Big Think+ business minds can help your team learn to fail smarter. Check out a sample from Amy’s class and request a full demo below for more detail on Big Think+ Leadership.
