How do people fail upwards?

Making mistakes, delivering poor results, or getting things spectacularly wrong, only to get promoted?

In this episode of R2BW, we unpack the baffling reality of people who seem to climb the corporate ladder despite their failures, while others are left picking up the pieces. We explore the politics, privilege, confidence, and workplace double standards that can reward failure rather than competence. Why does accountability seem optional for some, and what does it say about the systems that keep promoting them? Because sometimes, failing upwards isn’t a career accident — it’s a workplace phenomenon.
