    Segment 5: Mistakes Will Happen: Why You Should Embrace Human Error (And How to Minimize It)
    Jun 13 2024
    In this segment, we tackle the sometimes unrealistic expectations for team performance and the inevitability of human error. As a CEO, it's crucial to acknowledge that mistakes will happen, but they can be minimized through effective systems and processes. I share my perspective on why a zero margin of error is unrealistic and emphasize the importance of transparent conversations about mistakes. We delve into how proper onboarding and well-defined Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) can significantly reduce errors, ensuring that once a mistake is identified, it's not repeated.
