What does it mean to ‘fail’ well? How can you use the art of ‘failing’ to create a thriving organisation? What metrics do you need to gauge whether you are failing well?

As we mark the 200th episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green welcomes back Amy Edmondson, a renowned professor at Harvard Business School and a leading voice on psychological safety, to explore these very questions. Tune in as they discuss:

Strategies for HR to overcome the fear of failure
The importance of distinguishing between good and bad failures
Advice for HR and people leaders on embedding a failure culture within their organisations
How data can be used to gauge whether an organisation is "failing well"
