We often don't know what to do with regret. Organizations often have a culture that causes its employees to be solely future-focused, not dwelling on past failures. While there is certainly a need to move forward, the danger is that past regrets become taboo; people can feel like there is something wrong with them if they have regrets. However, best-selling author Daniel Pink believes that regret can become a positive driver resulting in powerful results. In this inspiring and encouraging episode, your host Tobias and Daniel discuss different types of regret, self-compassion, and how leaders and HR and Ethics professionals can deal with regret in a productive and restorative way.
