Create Noble Failures

I read ‘It’s not the big that eat the small, it is the fast that eat the slow’ by Jason Jennings and Laurence Haughton years ago (follow this link) and was reminded of that book when reading an article in INC magazine, recently

Have you celebrated a failure today? You should. I was reading about a CEO who instigated a ‘Failure of the Month’ award in his organisation.

Why would he do that?

Failure happens when we try stuff, when we are curious and ask “I wonder what will happen if…” Failure happens when we skate close to the edge, and when we’re not skating close to the edge we fall asleep and then nothing develops at all.

So celebrate your greatest failure this month, because from failure comes innovation.
