A sold-out crowd gathered in Halifax last night to learn from, reflect on, even laugh at other people’s failures, and in doing so join a movement that has spread to more than 300 cities in 90 countries.
The Halifax chapter of Fuckup Nights held its first meeting on Thursday to hear three local heroes discuss the times they screwed up in business or their lives and how they learned from it. Fuckup Nights is an international organization that believes the best education comes from, well, fuck-ups. It holds get-togethers in which people openly discuss their mistakes and what they learned.
