And the list goes on.
What doesn’t go on is our patience when people in these positions fail.
We harp on “failure is awesome”, “everyone fail“, “failing helps you grow” until the people in those positions fail.
I’ve tried a lot of different ideas out as a Manager, Leader, VP, whatever the role – some worked, some didn’t, some were abject failures that I shook my head at when all was said was done.
That’s life, that’s trying to make something happen with the best of intentions and sometimes failing.
Something to remember when we are all quick to embrace the rising Culture of Fail, it belongs to everyone.
