"METODA CZARNEJ SKRZYNKI" - KSIĄŻKA O BŁĘDACH I INNOWACJACH
Matthew Syed napisał pasjonującą, otwierająca oczy książkę z żywą narracją i mnóstwem niesamowitych, a wręcz szokujących historii. Katastrofy lotnicze, zapierające dech zdarzenia z sal operacyjnych, wpadki wymiaru sprawiedliwości, porażające konsekwencje tuszowania błędów, przełomowe idee, pionierskie badania i odkrywcze wnioski – to wszystko i wiele więcej znajdziecie w „Metodzie czarnej skrzynki”!
Na czym polega ta metoda? To podejście stosowane między innymi w branży lotniczej. To coś, co przychodzi z trudem, bo stoi w sprzeczności z instynktem i ułomną naturą człowieka.
To nauka na błędach.
Radę, by uczyć się na błędach, traktujemy dziś jak wyświechtany frazes, tymczasem jest to najskuteczniejsza znana człowiekowi metoda zdobywania wiedzy. Ta książka przedstawia jej niesamowitą historię. Pokazuje, jak wielką szkodę wyrządzamy sobie, nie wyciągając lekcji z porażek. Matthew Syed poprzez przemawiające do wyobraźni przykłady, inspirujące rozmowy i bardzo praktyczne wnioski unaocznia nam, że każdy może się nauczyć skutecznie korzystać ze swojej „czarnej skrzynki”.
