In December 2013, I had the great privilege of attending an immersive experience facilitated by Steve Chapman on Creative Practices in leadership.  Being that December 2015 has come and gone, and I have spent the last few days reflecting as we have rolled into January 2016, I realized that this was a story worth sharing because it is about "Failing Happy," especially as I look forward to some of the new things I may try this year!

This is moving beyond perception and into reality; the pursuit of truth, listening to the people who you are interacting with on a daily basis. This leader is willing to graciously accept others in the moment, but be ready for anything, especially in tune when it is time for change. It will then be critical for that leader to be fearless in leading through that change.
