Everyone fails multiple times in their lives. Perhaps you didn’t get that job or get named to a choice project, or the project you did lead just did not achieve its expected goals. Maybe your team didn’t rally as you envisioned and became dysfunctional. Whatever the situation, there are ways to manage and achieve success from failure, as long as you plan ahead for setbacks. And even if you experience challenges in a way you did not anticipate, there are still other ways to turn things around. Failure can be absolutely fabulous in our career paths and organizations and how to create mechanisms so that we can spot, address, learn from, and move on from these setbacks. We don’t have to welcome failure with open arms, but we can certainly learn to appreciate the gift that failure gives us by understanding the lesson to make us stronger and more agile, creative, communicative, and ultimately more victorious in our careers, teams, and organizations.
