In a society that rewards perfectionism, failure can be a hard pill to swallow. Even when we make silly mistakes, it can make us question our capabilities and intelligence, but what if we flipped this script on failure? Today’s guest wants us to embrace the mistakes we make and even encourages us to “fail better.” Amy Edmondson is the author of Right Kind of Wrong: The science of failing well, which dissects the power of intelligent failure and our ability to create environments where people feel free to try, fail, and try again. She sits down with Jessi to break down some examples of complex failures in our world and to share takeaways that can help move us forward.
