Let mistake happen, for Better Learning…
We all make Mistakes, though we try hard to avoid them. When we are young we make more mistakes without thinking much and hence learn easily.
As we grow older we start avoiding mistakes as we can’t afford them then. But then we miss learnings through them as well . Consequently we stop trying new too.
Mistakes bring loss but not trying new and misses in learnings are still BIGGER losses.
Making mistakes are usually linked with carelessness & incompetency . But it is also linked with trying something new, exploration, experimentation, stretching capabilities, out of the box thinking …
So shall we start making mistakes?
Not exactly… but some times let mistake happen for learning, while trying something new, exploration, experimentation, stretching capabilities, out of the box thinking, working on creative idea …
Being smart grownup we can foresee possible mistakes and failure modes and make strategy to minimize loses or alternative gains (Innovative risk mitigation approach) and go for it…
But young children are still to develop that skill. Hence parents and concerned grownups around act for them and prevent any mistakes.
Hang on… is it interfering, delaying or preventing their learning? Yes..
So do we let children make mistakes, get hurt and go through painful experience and learn?
Well, not exactly… But yes we let them make mistakes , create new, try new and be around for help if the things are getting worse and too much harmful.
But make sure we don’t interfere being over cautious and over caring .
We understand , we all grownups are busy and have more responsibilities to take care of… It is hard to find time for letting children make mistakes.
Aapt UX Learning is at your help. We design workshops for providing opportunity to young children to make mistakes and learn themselves which they don’t forget ever.
We conduct innovative workshops in groups at schools, afterschool centers, residential societies and at events as a part of employee children welfare programs,
What about youths? They have to be serious and focusing on their careers and scores. They can’t take any chance of making mistakes in real life. But even they need to try new, explore, invent and innovate, create… and hence they also should be allowed to make mistakes…
But how?
Aapt UX Learning conduct innovative workshops for youths as well, at colleges, residential societies, youth clubs etc. This provides them innovative opportunities to explore, try, experiment, create and let mistakes happen… and learn to deal with.
What about working professionals?
For working professionals it is even more tough to make mistakes at work. Still they are required to be creative, trying new strategies but they are not allowed to make mistakes. Is it really possible? It is stressful for sure
It’s dual edged sword for them … Try new, be innovative but don’t make mistakes… Mistakes at work are more expensive. But innovation and creativity are high rewarding , if successful.

It will help to establish good amount of stability in business as well as in society by offering:
-
Balance between Innovation and Standardization

Balance between masculine and feminine workforce in business

Electrifying Magic of “Passing A Token of Appreciation” among teams!
Appreciation works as inspiring, encouraging force for the one receiving it. In workforce management appreciation of the staff is always critical tool. Appreciation of one may discourage others among team. This is a negative effect of appreciation.
Big challenges or responsibilities are always handled by a team. Team can be layered and cross functional spread across geographical region. Each one of the team contributes at its level and important to achieve the goal in its own way.
How one of them can be chosen as best? In a team synchronization is most important. Only one is doing best will not yield the result. Only one getting charged up by appreciation is not going to charge the whole team.
How about appreciation of whole team? Well sounds good…
But how about passing token of appreciation among team? Sounds better?
It starts with the best performer of the team from management’s view. On receiving token of appreciation that person is supposed to pass it to one of the team members who contributed best to make him\her do the best. Of course data of evidence or facts can be collected and evaluated. Let the token of appreciation be passed among the team. Let appreciation reward get multiplied by each pass. When the whole team gets covered in this game of “Passing the Appreciation”, it’s the BINGO!
As management, what are we gaining by this? It will result in strong team building. This highlights importance of working together. It will act as lubrication to enhance synchronization among team resulting into increase in efficiency.
This can be work with big team consisting of multiple small teams.
It has electrifying effect… Have you ever tried? Click here to know more…
