OSMs and why we need them

In March 2017 Jason Averbook, thought leader and author spoke to a packed conference room at HR Tech World. It was a powerful presentation with a clear and key message, a call to action – Be Smart, Be Bold and Be Brave! He asked: ‘Are you brave enough to fail?’ Then he moved on to talk about OSM’s (Oh S**t Moments) and how we should embrace them.

I think it’s fair to say we’ve probably all had them and there were certainly a lot of people in the room that could relate to what he was saying. So, on the back of that I wanted to look at this a little more.
