Leaders have a powerful and proper role to play in leadership roles. Being “wrong” is about discovery, making it a good thing. From a collapse on a golf course at twenty-nine years old to completely changing the wrong in his life, Colin Hunter’s book Be More How Failure Makes You an Outstanding Leader explores how the wrong experiences can actually be the right ones transforming our qualities as a leader into something more than we ever expected.
No one likes being wrong, mainly the connotation that you have failed at something. Failure can be devastating to some, but even if you are wrong, it doesn’t mean that you aren’t learning something in the process. More importantly, failure can be used as a tool for learning. When reframing failure as something useful, you are less likely to avoid taking risks which is a powerful quality for a leader.
