PreAccident Investigation Podcast
Show Notes
Safety Podcast, Safety Program, Safety Storytelling, Investigations, Human Performance, Safety Differently, Operational Excellence, Resilience Engineering, Safety and Resilience Incentives
Being right is not nealy as valuable as being curious. Being right simply re-inforces the fact that you were right. You learn nothing and therefore you know nothing new. It is far better to be curious than right. When you are curious you are constantly learning. Knowing more makes you smarter!
I hope you noticed that I did not use the word wrong. I don't care much about being wrong either...I want you to know the power is in not knowing, the power is not so much in being right or being wrong.
Thanks for not being right all the time. Thanks, also, for listening to the podcast. Tell your friends, subscribe, and please, please, please, please write a nice review. Those help a lot in getting the word out.
