MINDSPACE Soundbite – Failing forward
Loading player...
Silicon Valley is home to many of the world's largest tech companies, and thousands of startups. Why is it that this small area is a global epicentre for tech and innovation? The reason is that innovators and entrepreneurs there don’t seem to get discouraged when a pitch, a business plan, or an idea doesn’t work; they just go back and try again.
Join us for this MINDSPACE Soundbite as we discuss how to foster an ethos of collaboration and encouragement in the workplace, so stakeholders across the spectrum can help each other to try things, even if they fail at first, and innovate for the greater good.
This episode contains five encouraging takeouts from the 2025 World Economic Forum annual meeting in Davos, courtesy of Old Mutual CEO Iain Williamson, that will make you feel (more) optimistic about doing business in Africa.
This MINDSPACE Soundbite is inspired by the February edition of our MINDSPACE newsletter. If you’d like to subscribe, contact us at mindspace@oldmutual.com or visit the Old Mutual Corporate Resource Hub at www.oldmutual.co.za/corporate/resource-hub.
