Listen "The Key to Success? Failure."
Episode Synopsis
Everyone’s afraid to fail, but today’s guest says we shouldn’t be. In fact, we should welcome it. Harvard Business School Professor Amy Edmondson says that “failure isn’t final” and that it’s often the first step toward great ideas and innovation. She tells Shirley that the most successful people fail more, not less, than the rest of us. Amy also shares the concept of “psychological safety,:— an essential feature of successful teams — which is created by a culture of sharing and accepting failure. To practice failure herself, Shirley decides to take up basketball and she learns about a useful office supply that would never have been invented without failure. Email us at [email protected].
