The Successes of Failure
Posted January 14th, 2010 by Gena Rotstein in
I
just read a very interesting article entitled A Helpful Guide to
Failure in Philanthropy. By Robert Wood (@lblumenthal) with Johnson Foundation. In this article he talks
about failing with style and
failure as success. When I first read that I was a little concerned; I mean
really, how do you fail with success? He
had successfully captured my attention so I continued to read. As a student, we
are prone to trying new things, taking a few risks and building portfolios.
Much of what we take on has such steep learning curves and we are bound to have
mini blunders along the way, so if I can learn how to turn these blunders into
"success" - I'm all ears.
