Fail your Way to Success - For Learning Organisations
•
2 j'aime•596 vues
The document discusses using experiments and failure as a way to learn and improve. It provides examples of experiments that could be run by product teams and to improve company culture. The key messages are: - Experiments allow teams to test assumptions in a minimal and low-risk way to learn without large failures. - Both product features and cultural initiatives within companies can be tested through experiments. - Learning is optimized when experiments have around a 50% chance of success; this allows teams to fail fast and learn quickly. - Companies should aim to run more, smaller experiments over time to accelerate learning.
