Former President and CEO at Nestle Nutrition, on AI, Innovation and Failure.

<p>Today, I had a compelling conversation with Gary Tickle, the former President and CEO of Nestlé Nutrition North America.</p><p>This guy is one of the sharpest marketers and leaders I've ever encountered.

He put it bluntly: “We need to innovate and constantly add value to the customer, but to do that, you must give everyone permission to fail.”</p><p>Failure? It’s tough. Especially in marketing, where the stakes can feel sky-high. But here’s the kicker: success and real value are born from failing hundreds of times. Personally, I’ve learned far more from my failures than from my successes. Each misstep has been a stepping stone to something greater.</p><p>From Delve Deeper, this is Narrow Lanes.</p>
