If you haven’t watched the Disney movie “Meet the Robinsons” with your kids, you should. It may not inject innovation into their DNA, but it will help teach the role of failure in success.

Here is a great quote from the end of the movie from Walt Disney:

“Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we’re curious…

and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”

The movie celebrates failure and its importance in driving innovation.

For more celebration of progress and a single-minded focus, check out Honda’s ‘Dreams’ campaign from a couple of years ago.

What do think the place is for failure in innovation?
