Future of Health: Atul Gawande: The Power of the Checklist

Town Hall Seattle
Seattle, WA


In a world of increasing complexity, even accomplished professionals struggle to master the tasks they face. But acclaimed surgeon and bestselling writer Atul Gawande, author of The Checklist Manifesto, posits a remedy in the humblest and simplest of techniques: the checklist. Used by the US Air Force for decades, checklists have enabled pilots to fly aircraft of mind-boggling sophistication. Now innovative checklists are being adopted in hospitals around the world, improving responses to everything from flu epidemics to avalanches, and into fields beyond medicine, from homeland security to investment banking. Presented through Town Hall's Future of Health Lecture Series with Kim Ricketts Book Events. Series sponsored by Bastyr University and PCC Natural Markets.
