Trends specialist keynote speaker Jeremy Gutsche encourages businesses to make failure a part of their every day. In his award-winning book 'Exploiting Chaos: 150 Ways to Spark Innovation During Times of Change' he discusses experimental failure and the ways it enables big thinking and the breaking down of creative barriers within a team. He believes that the more times someone or a company fails, the more they will succeed in future endeavors. He includes a quote in his book from NBA legend Michael Jordan to better illustrate his philosophy:
"'I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed.'"
Gutsche discusses experimental failure further in his innovation keynote presentations. He advises companies to develop a work culture that is not wary or afraid of failure.
