Conducting a Failure Audit: Four Key Questions for Growth

Entrepreneurial Mindset for Transformative Education with Stephen Carter

When we take the time to really dig into "failure" we discover that it really isn't failure at all--if anything, it's a key to unlock greater learning and exponential impact. The best tool to do this is a failure audit. In this podcast, I walk through the three primary components of a failure audit to bring about the biggest impact in our lives and those around us.

Key takeaways include the four questions for a failure audit:
1. What happened?
2. Why did it happen?
3. What did you learn?
4. What will you do differently next time?

Failure audits begin with examining a failure we have experienced ourselves, and then move to key interviews with other people, before resulting in patterns and insights.

Redefining failure is one of the key steps in increasing our entrepreneurial mindset.
