Forget the mistake, remember the lesson.


Leaders do not need to be perfect. They need to be inspiring.

Do you have a healthy environment at work where people are not afraid to take responsibility for failures and mistakes? Rapid learning and progress are more likely to be made if the culture remembers the lesson and not the mistake.

In such schools there is no fear - only respect.

In such schools teachers are not expected to be perfect - the expectation is to be creative, energetic, supportive and helpful.

Nobody is perfect.

It all starts with leadership. Do you show that you aren't afraid to be open about your own imperfections, shortcomings and mistakes?
