Abstract

Eliminating failure is 100% systematization! What is a "failure map" that can be used for systematization?

Mis-sent emails and chats, incorrect names, no-shows, double-bookings, forgotten or lost items, serious accidents and injuries... Eliminating failure is 100% systematization!
The author, a Stanford University PhD in engineering and vice president of the Society for the Study of Failure, introduces this "failure map" that can be used for systematization.

▼What is a "failure map"?
This new tool helps reduce mistakes and relieve frustration by simply answering the following two questions:
Question 1: How many people were involved in the task?
Question 2: How often is the task performed?

▼How to prevent failure:
By asking these two questions, you can determine which of four areas the failure falls into.
It visualizes the types of failures that are likely to occur in each area. It helps you understand the reasons for failure and develop countermeasures and preventative measures.

▼Can be used at work or at home!
- It can also be used to point out mistakes made by subordinates, colleagues, family members, and other close people.
- It can also be used to address concerns that people may not be able to point out because they are too careful not to become harassed.
