“Failure IS an Option: How Failure is Critical to Success”

Most advanced students who have achieved success believe that any failure is an indictment of their intelligence. And yet, anyone who has achieved critical breakthroughs in their fields or domains has done so by taking risks, learning from their failures and persisting through them. Through personal stories that illustrate the literature, this talk flips the script on success and failure by encouraging students, faculty and staff to shift their attitudes, behaviors and reward structures to embrace growth-oriented mindsets and behaviors toward achieving mastery.
