12 Days of Riskmas - Day 11 - The Missing Binoculars
Coming up on Day 11 of the 12 Days of Riskmas, when it comes to most major disasters, what you will find is that it’s never a BIG BANG that triggers the impacts but, rather a litany of small misses that – cumulatively – create a risk exposure too large to absorb.
In today’s episode, I look at a how a simple pair of binoculars – a canary in the coalmine - might have changed the outcome of the doomed voyage of Titanic.
