Svi pravimo greške. Ono što je važno je učenje iz njih, kao pojedinci, timovi i organizacije. Kultura učenja iz grešaka podstiče unapređenje, inovacije i bolje poslovne rezultate.

The Mistakes That Make Us: Cultivating a Culture of Learning and Innovation je zanimljiva, inspirativna i praktična knjiga Marka Grabana koja predstavlja alternativni pristup greškama. Umesto da kažnjava pojedince za ljudske greške i loše odluke, Graban nas podstiče da ih prihvatimo i učimo iz njih, negujući kulturu učenja i inovacija.

Greške se ne mogu sprečiti proaktivnim otpuštanjem svih ljudi sklonih greškama – jer to smo svi mi.

Delići priče i uvide iz svog popularnog podkasta, “My Favorite Mistake,” zajedno sa svojim radnim iskustvima, Graban pokazuje kako lideri mogu negovati kulturu učenja iz grešaka. Uključujući primere iz proizvodnje, zdravstva, softvera i dve destilerije viskija, knjiga istražuje kako organizacije svih veličina i industrija mogu imati koristi od ovog pristupa.

Pročitaćete priče lidera iz Toyote, tehnološke kompanije KaiNexus, kao i bivšeg američkog predstavnika Willa Hurda, Kevina Harringtona iz “Shark Tank,” i mnogih drugih.

Knjiga takođe deli ubedljive primere snage iteracije do uspeha. Graban predlaže da promenimo razmišljanje sa “greši rano, greši često” na “pravi male greške rano, uči, prilagođavaj se i uspevaj.” Ili, sažeto, “male greške mogu dovesti do uspeha.”

U knjizi ćete pronaći praktične savete o usvajanju pozitivnog stava prema greškama. Uči vas da ih priznate i cenite, radeći na njihovom sprečavanju dok stičete znanje iz onih koje se dogode. Dodatno, naglašava stvaranje sigurnog okruženja za izražavanje grešaka i podstiče konstruktivan odgovor sa naglaskom na učenju umesto na kazni.

Govoriti o greškama nije stvar karaktera ili hrabrosti; to je funkcija radne kulture.

Razvijanje kulture učenja iz grešaka kroz psihološku sigurnost je ključno za efikasno liderstvo i uspeh organizacije. Lideri moraju postaviti primer priznanjem svojih grešaka i dobrim reagovanjem kada zaposleni učine isto. Umesto da samo podstiču ljude na hrabrost, lideri smanjuju rizik povezan sa iznošenjem grešaka.

Psihološka sigurnost pomaže ljudima da se osećaju prijatno kada govore; sa efikasnim metodama rešavanja problema i sprečavanja grešaka, dobijamo akciju i unapređenje.

The Mistakes That Make Us je obavezna literatura za svakoga ko želi da stvori jaču organizaciju koja postiže bolje rezultate, uključujući niži promet zaposlenih, više unapređenja i inovacija, i bolje rezultate na dnu bilansa. Bilo da ste osnivač startapa ili aspirirajući lider u većoj kompaniji, ova knjiga će vas inspirisati da vodite sa ljubaznošću i skromnošću i pokazati vam kako učenje iz grešaka može dovesti do uspeha.

Pohvale za The Mistakes That Make Us:

“Konačno! Knjiga o greškama, promašajima i neuspesima koja ide dalje od pukih fraza i zapravo pokazuje kako angažovati naše greške kao motore učenja, rasta i napretka. Zaronite u The Mistakes That Make Us i otkrijte tajne negovanja psihološki sigurnog okruženja koje podstiče male eksperimente koji vode do velikih proboja.”

We all make mistakes. What matters is learning from them, as individuals, teams, and organizations. A culture of learning from mistakes spurs improvement, innovation, and better business results.

The Mistakes That Make Us: Cultivating a Culture of Learning and Innovation is an engaging, inspiring, and practical book by Mark Graban that presents an alternative approach to mistakes. Rather than punishing individuals for human error and bad decisions, Graban encourages us to embrace and learn from them, fostering a culture of learning and innovation.

Mistakes cannot be prevented by proactively firing all of the mistake-prone people — because that’s all of us.

Sharing stories and insights from his popular podcast, “My Favorite Mistake,” along with his own work experiences, Graban shows how leaders can cultivate a culture of learning from mistakes. Including examples from manufacturing, healthcare, software, and two whiskey distillers, the book explores how organizations of all sizes and industries can benefit from this approach.

You'll read stories from leaders at Toyota, the technology company KaiNexus, along with former U.S. Representative Will Hurd, Kevin Harrington from “Shark Tank,” and many others.

The book also shares compelling examples of the power of iterating our way to success. Graban suggests we shift the thinking from “fail early, fail often” to “make small mistakes early, learn, adjust, and succeed.” Or, more succinctly, “small mistakes can lead to success.”

In the book, you'll find practical guidance on adopting a positive mindset towards mistakes. It teaches you to acknowledge and appreciate them, working to prevent them while gaining knowledge from the ones that occur. Additionally, it emphasizes creating a safe environment to express mistakes and encourages responding constructively by emphasizing learning over punishment.

Speaking up about mistakes isn’t a matter of character or courage; it’s a function of the workplace culture.

Developing a culture of learning from mistakes through psychological safety is essential in effective leadership and organizational success. Leaders must lead by example by admitting their own mistakes and reacting well when employees do the same. Instead of solely pushing for people to be courageous, leaders reduce the risk involved in speaking up. 

Psychological safety helps people feel comfortable speaking up; with effective problem-solving and mistake-proofing methods, we get action and improvement.

The Mistakes That Make Us is a must-read for anyone looking to create a stronger organization that produces better results, including lower turnover, more improvement and innovation, and better bottom-line performance. Whether you are a startup founder or an aspiring leader in a larger company, this book will inspire you to lead with kindness and humility and show you how learning from mistakes can make things right.

Praise for The Mistakes That Make Us:

“At last! A book about errors, flubs, and screwups that pushes beyond platitudes and actually shows how to enlist our mistakes as engines of learning, growth, and progress. Dive into The Mistakes That Make Us and discover the secrets to nurturing a psychologically safe environment that encourages the small experiments that lead to big breakthroughs.”
