People are usually afraid of the word failure. We hear about failure a lot. We are taught at a very young age to not fail, whether that is homework, tests, sports or childhood responsibilities. It’s no wonder that as adults we are so afraid of failure.
As you become a leader, there are plenty of opportunities to fail. If you are a leader and you aren’t at risk of failing SOMEWHERE in your professional life…there is a good chance you aren’t growing and your teams aren’t operating at peak efficiency. Solid, effectiv, impactful leadership is walking a fine line between burnout and flow, failure and success. Sometimes you will crush it. Sometimes you will fail.
The important part is that you are constantly learning from those failures and missteps. If you are doing that, you and your teams will continue to grow and absolutely crush whatever is put in front of you, regardless of the failures.
