Elizabeth Day has spent the last five
years speaking to some of the best-known faces in Britain about what failure
has taught them.
Next week, she will be headlining the third Ultimate Masterclass Festival event in Aberdeen, where she will discuss what she learned, plus her personal experiences, in what will be a masterclass in personal growth and development.
Her chart-topping podcast How To Fail
With Elizabeth Day, which has recently reached 35 million downloads, is a
celebration of all of the things that haven’t gone right.
It examines how learning from mistakes
has helped her guests to succeed better.
Guests have included Bernie Sanders,
Steven Bartlett, Rick Astley, Craig David, Greta Thunberg, Delia Smith, Lady
Hale, Ed Miliband, Graham Norton, Daisy Edgar-Jones, Alistair Campbell and
Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
What is she going to talk
about in Aberdeen?
In this masterclass, Elizabeth will
share what she has learned from those 186 (and counting) interviews and distils
them into seven principles of failure.
Practical, reassuring and inspirational, these
principles offer a guide through life’s rough patches.
From failed exams to romantic break-ups, from
career setbacks to confidence crises, from navigating anxiety to surviving
loss, Elizabeth recognises, and celebrates, the fact that failure connects us
all. It is what makes us human.
How do I get tickets?

Ultimate Masterclass Festival website: www.umf.events

What is UMF?
The Ultimate Masterclass Festival is
about bringing together some of the brightest business minds to Aberdeen and
giving them a platform to share the secrets of their success.
Why? Because we want to inspire new
thinking and new ideas to grow our local economy.
The events programme has been designed
and curated by the events and marketing teams at the Chamber of Commerce, and
this year we have purposely organised all events in the city centre as part of
our commitment to bring fresh life to Union Street and the surrounding areas.
