The Checklist Manifesto

We live in a world of great and increasing complexity, where even the most expert professionals struggle to master the tasks they face. Longer training, more advanced technologies: neither seems to prevent grievous errors. There is a remedy in the most humble and simple of all techniques: the checklist. We can identify successful people in many fields who turn to checklists to pull off some of the most difficult tasks, and places where the impact of the checklist is huge: -in the complex world of surgery, a simple ninety second checklist has cut the rate of fatalities by a third -a cleanliness checklist in intensive care units that has virtually eliminated a type of deadly hospital infection -a restaurant where checklists allow a kitchen and dining room to run like a finely tuned symphony Aside from the great successes there is an inevitable resistance to accepting the discipline of a checklist-a tension between the autonomy experts want and the sense of discipline success actually requires.

[@gustavecirhigiri2987]

Based on where you have failed before and where you might fail in the future...you need a checklist

57:17 needs to be on a loop playing round the clock in my head till i get it down. i always knew i worked better with checklists...but it is soooo easy to start will the least important "busy work" tasks and skip the priorities. that is why such a big debate over if they work or not. this just solidified what i already knew...checklists Work!!! ONLY if they are in order of Priorities.🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯

[@eskay1891]

Can't agree more, it should be etched in gold and placed in every desk and living room.

Priorities: The realities of Circumstance and Change meet the reality of Time-Timing in recovery - Time is a reality often overlooked.

At 49:22 Dr. Atul Gawande describes how Boston's Children's Hospital had great success with the checklist approach for asthma, so well that it reduced re-admissions by 80%. But this decreased revenue for the hospital and they stopped doing it. That is a great story telling us that hospitals act in their self interest, not the patient's.

[@Arbitraging]

any source for this? I couldn't find it. I would think it would decrease revenue if they stopped it as patients obviously want to get better so they would go to the hospital which had the best success rate. Unless Boston found something better than the checklist to increase success rate

The most fun part of the book was the Doctor's Boeing simulator ride. He must have been like a kid in a candy store. I know I would be.

29:03 it is not only the use of the checklist but the teamwork factor as well.

[@hemiedwards217]

This guy was so prescient in regards to the antipathy of the masses towards the experts who claim they know what the best thing to do is. It's like he was predicting 2020-21.

We are all inept

Pppppppp0pppppp0ppp0pppppppppp0ppppppp00😊

[@narendrababu941]

Wonderfull narration by Atul Gawande.👋👋👋

[@sandeepdarvekar]

Absolutely amazing. Couldn't agree more. We should create checklist for software development and raising children 😉

[@MoJoM0J01]

What would one for software even look like?
1. Do you know what you were trying to accomplish
2. Do you think you accomplished it?
3. Does the code compile?
4. Does it accomplish your goal?
What you thinking?
