Listen Later

In this conversation, David Barrow discusses his experience in IT service management, drawing parallels between the principles of service management and the themes in the popular TV show 'Ted Lasso.'

The conversation delves into the importance of learning from failure, building communities of practice, and the human aspect of leadership and team dynamics. The same findings are present in David Barrow's book "An education in Service Management", which is also discussed.


Takeaways

  • Learning from failure is a key aspect of service management and leadership.
  • Building communities of practice and fostering a culture of experimentation and iterative improvement is essential for success in service management.
  • The fear of failure is often worse than the failure itself, and it's important to embrace a mindset of learning and growth.
  • The human aspect of leadership and team dynamics plays a significant role in the success of service management initiatives.
