Je corrobore l'idée que l'erreur est parfois bonne dans la mise en oeuvre des projets. Pour illustrer, l'on a construit un palais au début du 19 ème siècle en Haïti, mais les méthodes de construction utilisées ont été jugées inconciliables. Pourtant, en 1982, le Conseil international des Monuments et Sites de l'UNESCO classait ce palais comme un patrimoine de l'humanité et qualifie le Palais de Sans-Souci de Milot de bizarre beauté », due non seulement à un accord exceptionnel avec le site montagneux mais aussi au recours à des modèles architecturaux divers et réputés inconciliables ». Ceci dit cela apporte une créativité faisant de ce palais un projet unique.

Maintenant, comment faire pour savoir quand l'erreur serait bénéfique à un projet ou aurait facilité la créativité ou l'innovation?

Pour reprendre la catégorisation d'Amy Edmonson, si l'erreur pouvait être considérée "intelligente", ce sont des voyages réfléchis dans des territoires inconnus et dont nous apprenons quelque chose d'utile.

Interesting, Marc Donald.
Yes, most innovation comes from deviation from rules and planning and even defies rationality. Eureka!

In construction, a very costly industry, the examples are manifold.
For the Hamburg Philharmony, they 'discovered' that they should hang the concert room inside the building. Which was not planned, approved and funded.
Hirschman wrote about the principle of the hiding hand, when we build something under lots of (wrong) assumptions and pains, and in the end it serves us well for totally different purposes.

And here is a quote from Hirschman:

"Creativity always comes as a surprise to us; therefore we can never count on it and we dare not believe in it until it has happened. In other words, we would not consciously engage upon tasks whose success clearly requires that creativity be forthcoming. Hence, the only way in which we can bring our creative resources fully into play is by misjudging the nature of the task, by presenting it to ourselves as more routine, simple, undemanding of genuine creativity than it will turn out to be."

One approach that you can use to address an error in a positive or negative form is risk management. Inside risk classification, we can determine risks as threats, which have a negative impact, but also, there is a positive classification of a risk, where it's considered an opportunity, and has a positive impact. During risk planning, we can examine some errors that can be placed in the positive risk category.

C'est un véritable défi que de savoir quand une erreur peut être exploitée pour produire des résultats positifs. Je pense que cela s'apparente à la gestion du risque..
Merci Marc-Donald
