We've built an industry on the myth of the 10x developer who never makes mistakes. But here's the truth: every breakthrough came from someone brave enough to be spectacularly wrong first. This interactive keynote celebrates our failures - from production outages to rejected pull requests - as the hidden curriculum that actually teaches us to code. I'll share stories of catastrophic failures that led to industry-changing innovations, lead the audience through a "failure celebration" exercise, and show why psychological safety isn't just HR buzzword but the secret sauce of high-performing teams. You'll leave with permission to fail, frameworks for learning from mistakes, and the confidence to take bigger swings.
