Failure Embrace

Slide 17

Slide 17 text

“Many people think it means accept failure with dignity and move on. The better, more subtle interpretation is that failure is a manifestation of learning and exploration. If you aren’t experiencing failure, then you are making a far worse mistake: You are being driven by the desire to avoid it.” ~ Ed Catmull, Creativity, Inc.

Give Constructive Feedback

Slide 27

Slide 27 text

Feedback: I don’t like your commit messages. Constructive feedback: Your commit messages should explain the value of your changes, rather than just focusing on the implementation details. Have you tried describing the problem you’re trying to solve and the context behind it?

Slide 50 text

“There are two parts to any failure: There is the event itself, with all its attendant disappointment, confusion, and shame, and then there is our reaction to it. It is this second part that we control. Do we become introspective, or do we bury our heads in the sand? Do we make it safe for others to acknowledge and learn from problems, or do we shut down discussion by looking for people to blame? ” ~ Ed Catmull, Creativity, Inc.
