The checklist manifesto — Atul Gawande

  • by

The checklist manifesto I’ve been a Gawande fan for a while now. Mortality is one of my favorite books. Gawande is more famous for this book but I find it less relevant to the lay consumer. It’s geared towards MDs. Basically, it talks about the power of using checklists to breakdown complex tasks into small bites. Those tasks can be as slow-moving as a massive construction project or as fast as an airplane emergency or a high stakes surgery. The type of situation calls for various types of checklists and the chaos element of the situation necessitates various contingency lists. Highly valuable for project managers and productivity junkies. Worth a reread! 
Thanks, Gary Guthhart!
