Who among us hasn’t made a mistake? How leaders handle their own mistakes can be an essential indicator of a healthy workplace and one that has a growth mindset. Insecure leaders are frequently either unable to admit to errors or will gloss over them quickly in an effort to project strength or competence. Willingness to admit error can distinguish good leaders from weak ones. Others can and do see our mistakes in real time and kw and appreciate when we are being honest with them. It builds trust and confidence in our leadership and creates opportunities to learn and grow as an organization. Healthy organizations embrace failure as a tool for discovery and continuous improvement. The ability to recognize mistakes, learn from them, and move past them is an essential skill for every leader and organization in public service. So, let’s talk about it. The speakers will share stories and lessons learned from the mostly harmless mistakes of their career experiences and invite the audience to do the same in the jam session format. The lighthearted stories of the mistakes, coupled with the lessons learned, should be both informative and entertaining. After this session, participants will be able to:
• Identify mistakes for what they are—opportunities to do better next time.
• Relate better to others by humanizing their own experience.
• Practice humility by admitting error.
