Making the Most of Mistakes
“Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.”
- Albert Einstein
Earlier this week I began writing about the second new year for leaders. You can read the introductory post for more background information here. We have already admitted that the beginning of the school year has not been exactly perfect and mistakes have been made. That brings me to the following question:
What do the best leaders do when they make a mistake?
- Run in a different direction
- Blame somebody else
- Hide from anyone who knows the truth
- Ignore the mistake and it will go away
Unfortunately, none of these would be the correct answer. Even worse, these are strategies employed by many
