Prevention

Addressing predictable causes of harm and failure before they become incidents that require a rescue.

Behaviors

  • Acts on early warning signs
  • Removes recurring causes instead of repeating fixes
  • Checks safeguards before starting risky work

Anti-patterns

  • Rewarding rescues while ignoring preventive work
  • Waiting for a serious incident to act
  • Closing issues without addressing their cause

Reinforce it with

  • Near-miss reviews
  • Preventive maintenance schedules
  • Recognition for risks removed before incidents
Prevention makes quiet, uneventful success a result worth noticing.
