I teach, write, and ruminate on organizational learning, psychological safety, leadership, and teaming in this VUCA world we all inhabit. Latest books: THE RIGHT KIND OF WRONG: The Science of Failing Well and THE FEARLESS ORGANIZATION: Creating Psychological Safety in the Workplace for Learning, Innovation, and Growth.  
I truly regret that I am unable to reply to messages sent via LinkedIn; the volume of messages overwhelms the hours in the day.

Most leaders want to receive honest, useful #feedback. But organizations often default to teaching people how to deliver feedback instead of equipping them to make it safe and inviting for others to give it.

Jeff Wetzler shares practical ways leaders can build an 'Ask-First' feedback culture where people routinely seek input early and often, accelerating learning, trust, and performance.

I often say that #failure, especially an intelligent one, can be a gift. And that's because failures can reveal crucial aspects of ourselves; namely, what we need to work on and insights about what we're truly passionate about. 

Failing a multivariable calculus exam in college was caused by my inadequate studying. But it forced me to ask myself hard questions about the work that I truly loved—and that which I was likely doing to please or impress others. 

That was a gift, even if it didn’t feel like one at the time.

Next time you experience failure, ask yourself: What does this teach me about myself? You might be surprised what you learn!
