what kinds of mistake are you making?

I attended a change workshop at work today. This month's theme was "Mistakes, when they do happen are viewed as learning opportunities’’. This is a worthy topic for discussion and we ended up sounding out a lot of perspectives from different parts of the business.

However, at one stage we were taught about the different types of mistakes (apparently there are 3), the different types of responses to mistakes (again there are 3) and asked to make connections between them.

It all seemed a bit overkill. Why restate such a well known adage? I've decided to focus on the original and best:

'learn from your mistakes'.

What's wrong with that?
