TED Video of the Week

In education we often say that good lessons can be learned from failure.  Students even agree that failure can be a good thing.  General Stanley McChrystal, speaks about some lessons regarding leadership that he's learned over his career. 

One quote that I found interesting, for parents and for educators is this: "Leaders can let you fail, but let you not be a failure."  How can we foster this idea in schools and homes, where are students can confidently try something new, knowing that they themselves are not failures? 

Enjoy.
