Edmondson, drawing on her pioneering research into psychological safety, makes a compelling case for failing productively in her groundbreaking book.

Titled "Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well," Edmondson's work asserts that the most successful leaders and teams don't merely tolerate failure; they actively embrace it as a valuable opportunity for learning and growth. In a recent in-depth interview, we explored a myriad of topics with Amy, ranging from the essence of psychological safety to mastering the delicate balance of failing well.
