Sunday Inspiration - Peter van Manen

This week's inspirational post features a TED talk by Peter van Manen.  "How can Formula 1 racing help . . . babies?"


In the talk, Peter describes taking concepts, practices and software from the auto racing industry and applying them to medical care for infants.  I find myself thinking about how we can transfer the same concepts and practices to project management.

". . .  25,000 things that can go wrong."
"Always changing the car, always trying to make it faster."
"When things start to go bad, you have a short time to make a difference."
