Mistake Makers

I’m working on a leadership presentation for a client who wants to create a culture that embraces MISTAKE-MAKERS. It really got me thinking of how a simple mistake can lead to future greatness.

I’m sharing some leadership inspo today on why it’s healthy to create a work culture where mistakes are viewed as learning lessons for your future SELF.

A great talking topic during your next leadership meeting.

✓ Mistakes humanize you: Leaders who are willing to admit their mistakes and learn from them are seen as more approachable, relatable, and human. This can make it easier for employees to connect with their leader and feel more comfortable sharing their own ideas and feedback.

✓ Mistakes foster a culture of growth: When leaders model a growth mindset and embrace mistakes as opportunities for learning, it sends a message to their team and others that mistakes are not something to be ashamed of, but rather a normal part of the learning process. This can help create a culture where the team feels more comfortable taking risks and trying new things.

✓ Mistakes build resilience: Leaders who have experienced failure and learned from their mistakes are often more resilient and better equipped to handle future challenges. By learning how to adapt and pivot after a mistake, leaders can develop the skills they need to lead their team through difficult times.

✓ Mistakes leads to better decision-making: Making mistakes can help leaders better understand the risks and potential consequences of their decisions. By reflecting on what went wrong and why, leaders can make more informed and strategic decisions in the future.

The next time someone makes a mistake – celebrate their future growth and ask what they have learned from their experience.

Are you inspiring your leaders to think differently?
