But a new study says organizations learn more from their failures than their successes, and keep that knowledge longer.

One of the researchers was Vinit Desai, an assistant professor at the University of Colorado Denver Business School. He worked with Peter Madsen from the Marriott School of Management at Brigham Young University in Utah. They did not find much long-term " organizational learning" from success. It is possible, they say. But Professor Desai says they found that knowledge gained from failure lasts for years. He says organizations should treat failures as a learning opportunity and not try to ignore them. The study looked at companies and organizations that launch satellites and other space vehicles.

但一项新的研究称，各机构从失败中学到的知识比从成功中学到的要多，且受用时间更久。

威尼特·德赛是科罗拉多大学丹佛商学院的助理教授，也参与了此项研究，与他合作的彼特·曼德森来自犹他州的杨百翰大学万豪管理学院。他们并未发现很多来自成功的“组织学习‘。他们认为，这是可能的。而德赛教授称，他们发现从失败中汲取的知识可受用多年。他表示，各机构应当将失败看作一次学习机会，而不要试图视而不见。这项研究调查了发射卫星和其他航天工具的公司和机构。
