Pit Crews and Systems

Making systems work is the great task of my generation of physicians and scientists. But I would go further and say that making systems work — whether in healthcare, education, climate change, making a pathway out of poverty — is the great task of our generation as a whole.” (Atul Gawande)

This particular TED talk is one that speaks to the current crisis in medicine. We have cowboys and mavericks when we need pit crews that work together as a system. It's quite interesting and certainly worth the 20 minutes.
