Right Kind of Wrong: How the Best Teams Use Failure to Succeed

Reading Right Kind of Wrong felt like having a wise friend whisper: “Hey, it’s okay. You are allowed to trip… just don’t pretend the floor didn’t exist.”The book made me reflect on a deeper truth: when humanity started exploiting nature, we didn’t stop there. We started doing it to each other too. Especially in our workplaces.Instead of nurturing learning, many organisations built cultures of toxicity where fear wore a tie and power held the whiteboard marker. People didn’t stop being creative. They just stopped showing it, afraid of looking foolish and a failure in front of their boss. And that silence? That’s what leads to the wrong kind of wrong.What Edmondson calls for is simple but radical: psychologically safe spaces.Places where mistakes aren’t career-ending, but conversation-starting.Where “I don’t know” is met with curiosity, not condescension.Where experiments are not just tolerated, but toasted with awkward cake in the break room.If we want innovation, we have to stop pretending we are productivity robots and start remembering we’re learners. This book is a beautiful guide to that very human journey.Read it. Then fail fabulously with heart, humor, and a Post-it note that says, “Learning in progress.”

This is a gem. It challenges deeply held assumptions while offering a practical roadmap to think—and lead—differently.Amy Edmondson does a brilliant job breaking down failure into thoughtful categories, showing us that not all failures are created equal. The central idea—that intelligent failure is essential for innovation—really struck a chord. It’s something leaders across industries need to embrace, especially in high-stakes environments where the cost of stagnation is greater than the cost of a well-reasoned risk.What I appreciated most is that Edmondson doesn’t romanticize failure. She lays out a clear framework for learning, adapting, and leading through it. It’s scientific, candid, and deeply human.This is not just a business book—it’s a mindset book. If you’re serious about growth, innovation, or leading in complexity, read this. Then make everyone on your team read it too.A must read for teenagers navigating the relentless grind of competitive exams. In a culture that equates success with perfection, Edmondson offers a much-needed reminder: real growth happens when we take risks, learn from setbacks, and stop fearing failure as the end. It’s a mindset shift that can change how we approach learning, work, and life itself.
