A Braskem Americas employee made a $2 million mistake over a bad deal, but wasn’t fired because the company uses a development strategy that factors risk and delegation into its L&D plans, reports The Philadelphia Inquirer.
Mark Nikolich, CEO of Braskem Americas explained that, “The company wants employees to stretch and take risks. The company accepts this behavior as part of the learning process, and they don’t penalize them when they make mistakes within planned scenarios.” The company uses every opportunity as a way to teach employees, and to improve company processes.
