\n

Will Gallego says that we need to prioritize and incentivize learning from near misses, not just actual incidents.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve made headway into expending energy towards learning from incidents. We\u2019ll be even better off when we can regularly make learning from successes our regular work as well.<\/p>\n
