Chris joins me today to discuss the value of being open to making mistakes as an organizational leader. He explains why making mistakes is critical for personal and professional development, how organizations can encourage a culture of making mistakes, and where to draw the line between encouraging a mistake-making culture and keeping your team accountable. He also explains why allowing your team to make mistakes and failures is important to your company’s growth, creativity, and innovation and why leaders should be willing to embrace their mistakes and failures as well as share them with their workforce.
