Failing Until You Succeed - Behind the Brand with Seth Godin

In this 'Behind the Brand' video, thought leader Seth Godin opens with his stance on the model of the Corporate Ladder: "If you work in an assembly line, putting truffles in the box, that's a job. But if you have almost any white collar job, any job where you have access to the Internet, any job where there isn't a "list" of what you do all day, you don't really have a job; you have an opportunity."

Watch this video for more innovative insights, as well as a glimpse into his failed experiences, all of which have helped him succeed: "If I fail more than you do, I win."
