F.A.I.L.—Fearless Adventures in Learning! Improv+Collaboration Games Exploring the Value of Failure

This highly interactive session explores several engaging team-based improv & collaboration games that help teams embrace "successful failure." Rather than glorify the act of failing, we should understand that its power is not in failing alone, but rather the learning that emerges from it and the power that such learning has to unlock otherwise unforeseen opportunities. Our goal is to relinquish our fears of failure, break us out of our comfort zone and accept the prospect of failure with the ultimate goal of using it to better understand what success looks like, and how the struggle and pain of failure, and the learning that accompanies it, opens our mind to new possibilities we wouldn't have otherwise seen. These games create comfort with failure and build up our actionable learning muscle (insight synthesis, etc) that should accompany every unsuccessful attempt at success. Failure and learning for the win!
