an ode to failure, how to see things differently?
DESCRIPTION
Daily, we discard thousands of powerful idea's. Why? Because we consider them worthless. But if look at it from another perspective, you will see that these idea's have enormous potential. That is what I call brilliant failures. For example Viagra, Post-its and the pacemaker were discovered in such a way. But you can do this to! How? Watch it!Why do we think in patterns, and why doesn’t that always help us? This presentation is about Best practices and brilliant failures in business.

It’s not my responsibility... It’s too difficult to master... T H AT ’ S T O O B I G A C H A N G E . . . The market is not ready yet... Let’s keep it under consideration... It is just like… The older generation will not use it... W E A R E T O O S M A L L F O R T H A T . . . It might work in other places but not here... SINCE WHEN ARE YOU THE EXPERT?... That’s for the future... There are no staff members available... IT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR OUR CLIENTS...

CHAMPAGNE17th century monk Dom Perignon tried growing grapes that needed two seasons to ferment. The wine’s
carbon dioxide bubbles horrified him, until he was later toasted
for his efforts.
LSDSwiss scientist Albert Hoffman forgot to wear gloves in the lab and the chemical he absorbed sent him on the world’s first “acid trip”.
SUPER GLUE Dr Harry Coover was trying to isolate a clear plastic when he exposed it to moisture, which caused it to bond firmly together.
ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERA scientist working on an anti-fever medication put his cigarette down in the powder, and discovered the sweet taste of cyclamate.
TEFLONMaking the mistake of using an iron container, Roy Plunkett caused a chemical reaction that created Teflon in 1938.
PENICILLINAlexander Fleming left a culture out while he went on a holiday. It became contaminated by a fungus, which stopped the bacteria.
He had discovered the first antibiotic, penicillin.

close to a magnetron that produced microwave radio signals for radar, and
noticed that the chocolate bar in his pocket had melted.
