Where failure is discouraged, much less rewarded, why would anyone stick their neck out on the line, bringing a creative idea? Innovation occurs when failure is an option.

Challenging the status quo and allowing failure, will initially lead to disruption, however, ensuring failure leads to learning will allow for improvement in banking as a whole. There is much to be learned about the challenge of allowing failure within your organization.

Notes:
⛹️‍♂️ Innovation occurs when failure is an option: the players who lead baseball leagues and home runs almost certainly lead that league into strikeouts - apply that to your business. 01:20
✅ Not only should bankers stop punishing failure, but encourage it using the fail-fast fail-often model. 03:00
👉 Executives should encourage innovation and responsible risk-taking across the entire enterprise: ideas that don't go anywhere are not a strikeout - usually, it takes 30 ideas to get one right. 04:01
⁉️ Innovation occurs when failure is an option: will you take up the challenge to encourage failure at your organization? 06:07

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
