SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Positive Links Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Positive Links Speaker Series: The Science of Failing Well: How to Change Your Thinking to Lead (and Thrive) in an Uncertain World\nAmy C. Edmondson\nThursday\, February 26\, 2026\n3:00 - 4:00 p.m. ET\nFree and open to all\, registration required\nIn-Person & Online Options Available\n\nEvent link: https://myumi.ch/8qynj\n\nPositive Links:\nThe Positive Links Speaker Series\, presented by Michigan Ross’ Center for Positive Organizations\, offers inspiring and practical science-based strategies to build and bolster thriving organizations. Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders.\n\nAbout the talk: \nThis session explores a mindset shift that supports effective action in the face of uncertainty. This shift is well captured by the short phrase\, “think like a scientist\,” offered as a deliberate contrast to thinking like a (command-and-control) manager. Classically\, managers supplied answers and plans and evaluated how well others executed on them.  In contrast\, successful leaders of scientific labs offer direction and questions that empower action and help others make sense of data. This is not about being more lenient or laissez-faire\, but rather about a new type of discipline. Their model provides an analog that leaders in any industry today can learn from. In short\, today’s leaders must abandon the discipline of control to embrace the discipline of learning. Key concepts covered include psychological safety\, intelligent failure\, and interpersonal skills for high-quality conversations. \n\nAbout Edmondson:\nAmy C. Edmondson is the Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management at the Harvard Business School\, a chair established to support the study of human interactions that lead to the creation of successful enterprises that contribute to the betterment of society. \n\nHer 2019 book\, \"The Fearless Organization: Creating Psychological Safety in the Workplace for Learning\, Innovation and Growth\,\" has been translated into 15 languages. Edmondson’s latest book\, \"Right Kind of Wrong\,\" builds on her prior work on psychological safety and teaming to provide a framework for thinking about\, discussing\, and practicing the science of failing well. First published in the US and in the UK (Penguin) in September 2023\, the book is due to be translated into 24 additional languages and was selected for the Financial Times and Schroders Best Business Book of the Year award. \n\nHost:\nMonica Worline\, Faculty Director\, Center for Positive Organizations\n\nSeries Sponsors:\nThe Center for Positive Organizations thanks the Sanger Leadership Center\, Tauber Institute for Global Operations\, and the Zell Lurie Institute for Entrepreneurship for their support of the 2025-26 Positive Links Speaker Series. \n\nSeries Promotional Partners:\nAdditionally\, we thank Ann Arbor SPARK\, the Managerial and Organizational Cognition (MOC) Division of the Academy of Management\, and the Organization Development and Change (ODC) Division of the Academy of Management for their Positive Links Speaker Series promotional partnerships.
