"Did you know, there are companies who actually pay their people for making mistakes and coming forth with them?"

Every one of my clients wants to grow their innovation, creativity, and performance.

They want their people to experiment; try things; create new products, processes, and services; implement radical problem solving; and to create change.

So, I get a unique view across a lot of different sectors at what works and what doesn’t.

The number one way organizations stifle any creative thought:

Punishing mistakes.

You want to KILL any hope of innovation and individual brilliance?

Punish mistakes.

Make people wrong for trying and coming up short.

And do not fool yourself.

Many, many organizations tell themselves they allow people to make mistakes and all the while have a covert, tacit punishment of mistakes.

Or, they have individual leaders who act out their own ego deficiencies by making others wrong for trying and failing.

This matters. This is toxic.

So, you need to find out.

And what’s the solution? How do you build a culture of innovation?

Give everyone in your organization…

the Freedom to Be Wrong.

The freedom to fail, fall short, to screw up.

Essentially, we’re talking about offering Grace, a culture where it’s safe to be vulnerable.

Brene Brown says vulnerability is the foundation of all creativity and innovation.
Now, before you get all shaky, we are not “skipping through the forest,” here.

It’s simply encouraging your people to try boldly, and offering a soft landing when people fail… which they will!

Radical? Sure. And what do they get for it?

A Culture of Innovation.

(Not to mention a fun place to work, eh?).

So, start to grow your culture of innovation by giving everyone...

The Freedom To Be Wrong.
