Failure Resume Example:
Professional Failures
Not observing things as is: Early in my career I naively thought I knew how
organizations worked. I made judgments about corporate culture that were incorrect. I
wish I had spent more time observing people and behaviors and less time making
judgements. I wish I had paid attentions to where the Internet industry in China was
going at the time.
Not listening to my own likes and dislikes: At major junctions in my career, I listened
more to others’ expectations of me and followed them without really examining whether
they make me happy. I wish I had been confident enough to listen more to myself and
really follow my own interest. I might still have come to make the same choices but with
more buy-in.
Academic Failures
Not doing my best: The first time that I took the GRE test (a test for graduate school
entrance in US and UK), I mistakenly overestimated my Math skills. I did not prepare
enough for this subject. My overall score was poor and I ended up spending two more
years to fully prepare for another Graduate entrance test.
Mismanaging Relations: I had a challenging relationship with my PhD advisor. I
wanted to focus on organizational learning, and she felt I should spend most of my time
on another topic: internationalization of small businesses. I wish I had found a way to
better align our goals.
Personal Failures
Avoiding Conflicts: In my relationships, sometimes I have trouble voicing my
preferences. Instead of telling others no when a situation arises, I let the pressure build
until it had to blow off. The relationships broke. I wish I had been able to talk honestly
about what was going on and say no earlier on.
Not having a creative outlet: I do not know how to draw or make music. When things
are getting tough, the only outlet that I have is to exercise. I wish I have a more
consistent creative outlet to work through the emotions.
