When you\u2019re watching things go down in flames or they’ve just collapsed in front of you, it can be hard to keep a broad perspective and focus on moving forward productively. This article by Miriam Persley<\/a> at Leadership Learning Community (which references Beth Kanter from our post yesterday<\/a>\u00a0as inspiration) provides a twist on a\u00a0design thinking framework to give us a practical list for working through failure, in a healthy way:<\/p>\n

  1. Gain Empathy: Reflect<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. Gain Empathy: Dig Deeper<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. Reframe: Infer Insights<\/strong><\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. Reframe: Set A Goal<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/li>\n
  5. Creation: New Ideas<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/li>\n
  6. Creation: Share New Ideas: Collective Leadership<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/li>\n
  7. Iterate: Reflect Some More and Generate A Plan<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/li>\n
  8. Build & Test: Build Your Solution<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/li>\n
  9. Build & Test: Share & Collect Feedback<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/li>\n
  10. Communication: Document Your Process<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>
    \n<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    We love the application of design thinking to reflecting on failure. Key aspects of design thinking such as, iteration and\u00a0testing assumptions can serve as a valuable framework to breakdown what’s at work during a failure state of mind.<\/p>\n
