1 Resilient and adaptable mindset

The first step to learning from failure is to accept it as part of the process, not as a personal flaw or a sign of weakness. You need to develop a resilient and adaptable mindset, which means that you can bounce back from setbacks, cope with stress, and embrace change. A resilient and adaptable mindset will help you to see failure as feedback, not as a final verdict, and to focus on the solutions, not on the problems. You can cultivate this mindset by practicing positive self-talk, setting realistic and flexible goals, and embracing new challenges.

If you are focusing on the thought of failure, you are already hurting yourself. Failure is a fantasy. There are only lessons in this world. You can choose how you learn them & which kind you learn, but you are not failing because you are learning a lesson. If the untrue idea of failure is attacking you, the very first thing you do is ask yourself, "Could I let go of blaming myself & choose to love myself instead?" Ask it over & over until the charge of the failure feeling has dissipated. It's just a feeling and it's not a real feeling - so you can let it go. This tool to bounce back is EXTREMELY effective, so don't waste another precious moment on the thought of failure. It's trying to keep you small and you shouldn't let it.

Failure is where the learning starts. Learning from failure in your franchising career involves embracing setbacks as opportunities for growth. Analyze the situation objectively, identifying specific factors that led to the failure. Recognize the lessons within these challenges and understand how they align with the franchise's systems. Seek feedback from experienced franchisees or mentors to gain valuable perspectives. Develop a proactive mindset by creating an action plan to address and prevent similar issues in the future. Use failure as a stepping stone, adapting strategies and improving decision-making. Setbacks are chances to refine your approach and contribute to long-term success in your franchising journey.

2 Analyze and learn from mistakes

The second step to learning from failure is to analyze and learn from your mistakes, not to ignore or repeat them. You need to conduct a honest and objective evaluation of what went wrong, why it went wrong, and how you can prevent it from happening again. You can use tools such as SWOT analysis, root cause analysis, or SMART action plans to identify your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, and to create specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound steps to improve your performance. You can also document your findings and actions in a journal or a report, so that you can track your progress and learn from your experience.

I believe strongly that franchise organizations should embrace failures as learning opportunities rather than hiding or ignoring them. Sharing experiences of both successes and failures within the franchise network can be incredibly beneficial. It creates a culture of continuous improvement and collective learning. When one franchisee encounters a challenge and overcomes it, sharing that experience helps others avoid similar pitfalls, leading to a stronger, more resilient franchise system. This collaborative effort doesn't just help individual franchisees growth but also contributes to the overall success and innovation of the franchise brand.

3 Seek feedback and support

The third step to learning from failure is to seek feedback and support, not to isolate or blame yourself or others. You need to communicate with your franchisor, your staff, your customers, and your peers, and ask for their opinions, suggestions, and advice. You can use tools such as surveys, focus groups, or interviews to collect feedback from different sources, and to understand their perspectives, needs, and expectations. You can also join or create a network of franchisees, mentors, or coaches, who can offer you guidance, encouragement, and inspiration. You can also seek professional help if you feel overwhelmed or depressed.

You are a lucky one. You are in franchising. Franchises have teams of people at the franchise, with franchisees, and the vendors who support you. There are SO many people rooting for you and they benefit when you win. If you are brave enough to ask for feedback & support, chances are high you can get it. Be bold. Raise your hand. Ask what you need, and what you are not seeing. Soak it all in as the incredible gift it is. All feedback is absolutely fantastic. It gives you a roadmap of what to work on. Make it scientific instead of personal. Track it, measure it, report back on it, look for the consistency of it. This helps you to be more discerning about the opinions you're getting & more powerful as a result.

4 Implement changes and innovations

The fourth step to learning from failure is to implement changes and innovations, not to stick to the same old methods or routines. You need to act on the feedback and the lessons that you have learned, and to make adjustments and improvements to your franchise operations, products, services, or marketing. You can use tools such as pilot testing, prototyping, or experimentation to test new ideas, strategies, or solutions, and to measure their results and impact. You can also embrace new technologies, trends, or opportunities that can enhance your franchise performance, efficiency, or competitiveness.

5 Celebrate achievements

The fifth step to learning from failure is to celebrate your achievements, not to overlook or minimize them. You need to recognize and reward yourself and your team for the progress and the results that you have made, and to share your success stories and best practices with your franchisor, your customers, and your network. You can use tools such as milestones, indicators, or recognition programs to track and acknowledge your achievements, and to motivate yourself and your team to keep learning and growing. You can also celebrate your failures as learning opportunities, and as evidence of your courage and resilience.

Failures show what went wrong with systems or the use of the systems or processes. Each failure should be used to not only review what happened it should also be used to prevent it reoccurring. Be quite open with feedback and set up processes to identify and indicate when failure is eminent. Always go back to your strategic plan to be in agreement with your franchise direction.
