The Checklist Manifesto: A Complete Summary - How to Get Things Right

The Checklist Manifesto, written by Atul Gawande, explains how maintaining a checklist is vital for managing complexity in medicine, business, and other fields. Although the idea of a checklist is quite simple, it has profound implications for high performance, disaster avoidance, and team dynamics. 
Back in 2006, Gawande worked with the World Health Organization to find an effective way to reduce preventable errors in the high-stakes world of surgery. Through his research, he discovered that many mistakes which occur during surgeries can be prevented. 
Creating a checklist seemed like a promising answer to the problem. This prompted Gawande to begin a journey to understand how other industries such as aviation, building construction, and financial investing use checklists to minimize errors and increase their performance. Through his thorough research, Gawande discovered that making a checklist is more challenging than it seemed. However, a properly organized checklist can create better teamwork, empower employees, and even improve organizational structure.
