In this one time course, learners will explore the many ways that they can fail successfully. We will discuss all of the opportunities for growth that are open to us when we take a chance and try something new. From filming a video, to baking a cake, we will talk about all the ways our new skills might fail, and how we can turn our failures into progress. Our meeting will have a few minutes for introductions, a short period to gather learner ideas, and then a topical discussion based on the potential failures we may encounter, and what we can harvest from these adventures. Each class will vary based upon learner generated dynamic discussions. This is a discussion based one time class. From pancakes to knitting, the first is often the worst! We will work together to overcome the fear of failure and embrace our potential for growth! As a business owner and a lifelong learner, I have encountered failure many times. I have discovered how to fail successfully, and learn from each opportunity. Come join me in failing successfully!
