Ep.1200 - Intentional Versus Accidental Failing

In this podcast we cover:

• What is the difference between intentional and accidental failing.
• What does it mean to intentionally fail.
• Why is it okay to accidentally fail.

In this episode, I dive into the difference between accidental and intentional failure, a concept that has transformed the way I think about mistakes in construction and leadership. I share why it is absolutely okay to fail accidentally, as long as you are giving your best effort, following the process, and learning along the way. At the same time, I explore how intentional failure, such as ignoring proven systems, refusing to ask for help, or repeating the same mistakes, damages trust and culture. You will hear practical insights from my own experiences and company practices, including how we normalize failure during meetings and use it as a tool for growth. If you want to understand how to embrace the right kind of mistakes while avoiding the wrong ones, this episode will give you the clarity and perspective you need.
