The case typicallytakes the form of a carefully selected feature length film. Selected films often dramatizehistorical events, and depict actual leaders, followers, and teams confronting complicatedleadership challenges, relevant to important personal, individual, and organizational outcomes.Table 5: PL300 Military Leadership Course, Lessons and TheoriesCadet performance on PL300’s reflective writing assignments constitutes our best, most directassessment of the degree to which PL300 succeeds in prompting cadets to reflect on theirleadership, and become better, more self-aware leaders.

This one-semester course is a requiredcomponent of a mechanical engineer’s curriculum and is offered each semester. Between 100 and130 students take the course in a semester. The typical class enrollment is about 80% male, 70%in-state students, 86% U.S. citizen or permanent resident, and 14% non-US residents. The

final failureare themselves the units of analysis [20].In this varied arena of literature, failures can be defined as broadly as any “deviation(s) fromexpected and desired results” [17]. More specifically, these can include errors that arepredictable and preventable, as well as failures that are inevitable in work that has a complexlevel of risks and high uncertainty. Sitkin [21] conceptualizes “Intelligent failures” as minor,non-threatening failures that result from deliberate action and can most readily facilitate newlearning. Edmondson extends this idea and emphasizes intelligent failure as being at the frontierof innovation, the inherent error in ‘trial and error’ [22]. Of course, failure can also be asmundane as everyday miscommunication
