A yo-yo with a broken string: how failure leads to success | Mark Hayward | TEDxLawrence

A demonstration of the critical importance and great benefits of failure and how to learn from it to stay on the path to success.

World Yo-yo Champion Mark Hayward screwed up on national television, and it was the BEST day of his career. He wants to tell your audience why. Mark knows all about turning failure into success. He is a highly regarded and critically acclaimed comedy entertainer and speaker, and he shares the hard-won lessons he has learned from the streets of New York City, all the way to Shanghai. Mark believes that the lessons from his stories will help any organization become a better, more positive and successful place to work. Mark says, “I teach organizations that it’s ok, and necessary, to fail.”
