The Science Behind Smart Failures with Organizational Behavioral Scientist Amy Edmondson

Game Changers with Molly Fletcher

We used to view failure as the opposite of success. Now, we’re often torn between two conflicting approaches: “avoid failure at all costs” or “fail fast, fail often.” Neither perspective helps us distinguish between good and bad failure, leading us to miss the chance to fail well. In this episode, we explore the complexities of failure with Amy Edmondson, a renowned Harvard Business School professor and leading expert in organizational behavior. In her book, Right Kind of Wrong, Amy presents a framework for understanding and navigating failure effectively. She provides actionable strategies to transform failure into a powerful catalyst for growth, teaching us how to recognize when failure is beneficial and how to minimize its unproductive aspects. Her insights will help you cultivate a growth mindset, take smart risks, and learn from your failures.
