Pinterest Fails + Staff Development
Here's the lesson: Pinterest fails happen...it's just a fact of life.
While I was hard on myself for a time, it dawned on me that I didn't have a baby and magically become artsy. It takes time and effort and skill.
It's like that with staff development too.
We want our staff to make a change and immediately be successful, but that isn't always realistic. They need time and effort and practice.
So celebrate those "Pinterest fails!"
It means they are learning.
I'm not saying you let them fail forever, but giving them a safe place to try and fail and learn while they practice and build their skills - well, that is a Pinterest win.
