The word Failure can bring up a number of emotions which often leads to negative emotions, however, harnessing its power can become a catalyst for positive change towards creativity and innovation and such a failure is termed as “SMART FAILURE”.
Change is the law of nature and necessity is the mother of invention. Also, accidents are the first steps of innovation. Most probable outcomes of a phenomenon under consideration are compiled with credible certainty only after a range of experiments. From discovery of electricity to small strategic changes in the user interface of a website for increasing online traffic, the history of mankind is dotted with various incidents that were a part of experiments, which ultimately led to betterment of the situation. In the present globalized world, where competition amongst the corporates is one of the great driving forces behind continuously evolving business models, experimentation is an integral part of achieving innovation. Business across various sectors have one thing in common, that is, their constant efforts to disrupt the market by bringing in such a product or service that would outsmart and out maneuver the competition. Business cannot do without innovation and innovation is not possible without experimentation.
“Don’t let your mistakes make you feel demotivated; instead, use them as lessons and try again”. With this motivating and inspiring thought let’s start our journey of gathering some interesting information regarding ruling out the fear of failure from inside our minds and paving the way to nurture innovation and experimentation.
The Indian government is aware of how crucial experimentation and innovation are to building a knowledge-based economy.

Businesses must foster a culture that rewards experimentation and risk-taking in order to accomplish this goal.
