Right Kind of Wrong:
The Science of Failing Well by Amy C. Edmondson
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
Let’s connect with other ATD Dallas members and discuss this quarter’s book over a hot cup of Joe! Once a quarter, we will meet to discuss a new book related to Talent Development. During our chats, be prepared to talk about key insights, how you can apply those concepts, and the impact it will make on you. Come early and grab a free cup of coffee on us!
ABOUT THE BOOK
“Right Kind of Wrong” by Amy Edmondson is a groundbreaking guide to understanding and using failure wisely. Drawing on decades of research on psychological safety, Edmondson explains the three types of failure—basic, complex, and intelligent—and shows how to minimize the harmful ones while learning from the rest. Through real-world examples and practical tools, she teaches how to replace shame with curiosity, take smarter risks, and build cultures where people grow through mistakes instead of fearing them. It’s a fresh, empowering roadmap for failing well—and succeeding because of it.
