Wednesday, October 26 -- Week 9 TRADITIONAL CALENDAR

Shout out to Dominique for his honesty and for continuing to share his leadership journey.

 

Week 9 continues and is due next Monday.  

Keep up the make-up work! Previous weeks remain open to allow you to make up missing assignments.  They will close October 31.

Your Rags to Riches assignment gives you the chance to connect what you have learned this week about failure to someone who has learned to fail forward.  Forbes Magazine says that failure teaches you 5 things about leadership:

1.  Confront Your Failure and Learn from It

2.  Build Your Team and Make the Business Better

3.  Trust Your Gut and Make More Decisions

4.  Second Chances are All Around You

5.  Appreciate Your Leadership Responsibilities

Which of these lessons did your Rags to Riches person learn first?  How do these 5 ideas compare to what you are learning about leadership in your life?   For more information, read the article at http://www.forbes.com/sites/glennllopis/2012/08/20/5-things-failure-teaches-you-about-leadership/. (Links to an external site.)
