How cool are student nurses? One of my students, preparing for their dissertation module, came to a training session straight from a night shift. Would prefer this didn’t have to happen; but student nurses often go above and beyond.

I'm at #Quality2024 live, listening to @AmyCEdmondson talking about principles from her book “The Right Kind of Wrong – The Science of Failing Well”. Amy differentiates three kinds of failures in organisations: 1) Basic failures: caused by carelessness or ignorance 2) Complex failures: caused by a combination of multiple systemic factors, none of which would have caused failure on its own 3) Intelligent failures (the most productive kind): where organisations/teams test new ideas, at small scale to learn & develop. Graphic from @tnvora: lnkd.in/eJkXxNTS Here's another article on Amy's book that focuses on psychological safety & risk taking: lnkd.in/eqS3P2bM Via @HBSWK
