Fail Forward: The Coaches Panel - Oct. 27

Submitted by Caterina Rost on

“Never let the fear of striking out get in your way."

—Babe Ruth

The greatest learning happens when you push yourself to the edge of what you are capable of doing. On that edge, you will experience setback, struggle, and failure — all of which provide an opportunity for growth. Come learn how to take risks, face challenges in and out of the classroom, and ultimately, fail forward

Join us for our second Fail Forward: Reflections on Rejection panel series. Hear stories and experiences of success and failure, risk and redemption shared by some of our outstanding University of Washington coaches. 

When: Tuesday, October 27
6:00 p.m. Doors open and snacks are served
6:30 p.m. Our coaches share their stories of failing forward

Where: Kane 130
