Thank You To Our Partners AutoFlow, Shop Dog Marketing, InBound, and Service Advisor Training Watch Full Video Episode I introduce a rather enjoyable topic for myself as an aviation history buff, specifically a World War II aviation history buff, we’ll be talking about lessons from the fateful story of the Model 299. It's a chapter that's cited in an amazing book that I read, which I'm highly recommending to all of our listeners. The book is "The Checklist Manifesto: How to Get Things Right" by Atul Gawande. This book is revolutionizing my approach to the automotive repair facility processes that I teach. Captures a sense of where I see things headed, as we are entering an era where technology can finally converge with the power of checklists. Gawande specifically cites two modes of failure in the topic of necessary fallibility: Ignorance and Ineptitude. Ineptitude is also our word of the day. Noun. lacking in fitness or not suitable to the time, place, or occasion Ineptitude deals with the topic of knowing but not doing. It's the very thing that makes us human. It's the very thing that dictates we must have processes to compensate for that fallibility. I hope you find this topic as intriguing as I do, and you'll stick with me to hear the directions that I think this topic should lead us in. Sincerely, Craig O’Neill Sources: Gawande, A. (2009).
