Amy C. Edmondson: Right Kind of Wrong - The Science of Failing Well - INSEAD
2024-02-09 23:00 (Asia/Singapore) | Online Event
Winner of the Financial Times and Schroders Business Book of the Year 2023 A revolutionary guide that will transform your relationship with failure, from the pioneering researcher of psychological safety and award-winning Harvard Business School professor Amy Edmondson. We used to think of failure as the opposite of success.
Now, we’re often torn between two “failure cultures”: one that says to avoid failure at all costs, the other that says fail fast, fail often. The trouble is that both approaches lack the crucial distinctions to help us separate good failure from bad. As a result, we miss the opportunity to fail well. After decades of award-winning research, Amy Edmondson is here to upend our understanding of failure and make it work for us.
In Right Kind of Wrong, Edmondson provides the framework to think, discuss, and practice failure wisely. Outlining the three archetypes of failure—basic, complex, and intelligent—Amy showcases how to minimize unproductive failure while maximizing what we gain from flubs of all stripes. She illustrates how we and our organizations can embrace our human fallibility, learn exactly when failure is our friend, and prevent most of it when it is not.
This is the key to pursuing smart risks and preventing avoidable harm. With vivid, real-life stories from business, pop culture, history, and more, Edmondson gives us specifically tailored practices, skills, and mindsets to help us replace shame and blame with curiosity, vulnerability, and personal growth. You’ll never look at failure the same way again.

Demand and supply of LTC services : new perspectives from economics, sociology and political sciences - HEC Montreal

The population of industrialized countries is aging, leading to a prioritization of economic, sociological, and political issues related to support and long-term care programs for seniors. Quebec and Canada are not excluded from this demographic trend and several public reports demonstrate the need to examine the coverage, generosity, and costs of these programs to better plan for the years to come.
This event is organized by Marie-Louise Leroux (UQAM, CIRANO) and Patrik Marier (Concordia University), in collaboration with CREEI, CREGÉS, FRQSC, the RSI, ESG UQAM, Concordia University and CIRANO.
It will bring together numerous world-renowned researchers in political science, economics, and sociology, aiming to take stock of the major questions linked to the issues around loss of autonomy, stimulate discussion on these societal issues, and provide possible answers.
Some of the questions that will be addressed are:

What solutions should public authorities put in place to provide adequate support and care for seniors and their caregivers?
Will seniors have the financial resources to meet increased needs, such as adapting their housing, using nursing services and help with daily living tasks?
What are the preferences of seniors regarding the mode of care in the event of loss of autonomy; do they prefer to stay at home or go to a residential and long-term care centre (chslds)? What are the issues linked to different modes of care?
What are the financial and psychological consequences for the relatives (caregivers) of seniors losing their autonomy?
