The Smallest Mis-Steps Lead To Catastrophe
It's been a long, hard winter. The western U.S. is suffering from record breaking arctic weather and everyone is getting sick. Somehow Chunga has managed to avoid it--until now. He hasn't been sick since he had Covid 2-years ago! Tom says his timing is perfect because he's been following recent reports from the U.S. Intelligence Community that claim the Covid outbreak was the result of an "intended leak" from a research lab in China. Tom can draw a lot of parallels between this disaster and the tech industry as a whole. If you look at some of the biggest challenges tech professionals face, virtually all of them start with a single, unintended, mis-step that often times leads to catastrophe. What do you when this happens? You adapt! Disasters are going to happen; at the end of the day, we're all just people. In this episode of The Hacks, Tom and Chunga talk about how important it is for tech professionals to have robust adaptation skills in order to avoid tunnel vision and bad decision making.
