How Agile Leadership Helps Your Team Fail Fast and Learn Faster
What if failure isn't the enemy, but the secret ingredient to building breakthrough teams?
In this episode, Kamaria Scott is joined by Coletrice Haywood, a project management leader and organizational development expert, to explore how people leaders can transform their relationship with failure and use it to unlock team potential. We dive into why the fear of failure keeps teams playing small, and how agile methodologies can help any leader, regardless of industry, create environments where calculated risks lead to innovation.
Key takeaways from this conversation:
Why the only real failure is not trying or giving up, and how this mindset shift changes everything
The three stages of professional development: knowledge, expert, and expertise—and how to meet people where they are
How your own relationship with failure directly impacts your team's willingness to take risks
Three agile practices every people leader can steal: daily standups, retrospectives, and refinement sessions
Why creating psychological safety isn't about avoiding failure. It's about learning from it faster
How to turn individual strengths into collective team success through structured conversations
Whether you're leading a small team or managing complex projects, this episode will help you move from failure-avoidant to failure-forward leadership.Show NotesConnect with Coletrice Haywood on Linkedin
