在美国一些公司为鼓励在工作中敢于标新立异,但并没成功的职工,别出心裁地设立了一项‘鸭头奖’,从而为勇于创新又不怕失败者壮了胆。 俗话说:‘失败乃成功之母’,没有失败的经验和教训,哪来成功的丰收和喜悦?给失败者设‘鸭头奖’,似乎荒唐可笑,实则是高明之举。其可贵之处就在于它是奖而不是罚,其意义非同寻常。

In the United States, some companies have encouraged employees who have dared to make a difference in their work, but have not succeeded. They set up a duck-head award ingenuity, and thus courageously innovate without fear of failure. As the saying goes: ‘Failure is the mother of success’. There is no experience and lesson from failure. Where is the successful harvest and joy? To set up a duck prize for the losers seems absurd, but in reality it is a brilliant move. The great thing about it is that it is a prize, not a punishment. Its meaning is extraordinary.
