"I don't know how to do this; I'm gonna fail. We need to get over that (fear)," emphasizes Josh Bersin, renowned industry analyst, who advocates for a workplace where the fear of failure is replaced by curiosity and experimentation. Indeed, "it's about progress, not perfection," Jason Weeman, Leadership Development Consultant at LinkedIn, reminds us. When we feel safe to fail, we're more likely to take risks, innovate, and grow.
Maureen Lonergan, VP, Amazon Web Services (AWS) Training and Certification, also urges others not to let their perceived lack of knowledge limit them. Despite not being the strongest academically, it was Lonergan's willingness to work hard, accept feedback, and reset and reframe that led her from training coordinator to leading global training initiatives at AWS.
Change is inevitable, but many people fear it. That's why leaders who embrace it are the ones who thrive. Daniel Garcia Alfisi, a global expert in L&D, sees adaptability as a skill to be cultivated. It's a muscle that grows stronger through experience and a willingness to confront various challenges.
