Craft a thoughtful essay response to the video presentation. Ideas for talking points can include but are not limited to the following ideas:

• This TedTalk is from 2012 which is considered dated by science (over five yrs old); do you consider the majority of ideas relevant or not relevant today?
• Do you feel healthcare systems are roughly the same, better or worse today than when this TedTalk was created? What changes have occurred - progress and setbacks?
• Do you agree with the author's analogy of cowboys vs pit crews? Does this mean anything different to you than his interpretation?
• What are your thoughts on the car parts analogy? Is this a fair comparison? Valid idea?
• Sometimes the simplest ideas are best, even in medicine i.e. the checklist example. Do you agree with this as applied to healthcare? Examples of this theme you've seen fail or succeed in a healthcare environment?
• Another theme of the video was "making systems work" through a series of three skills presented. Apply this idea to our current covid-focused healthcare environment?
• Did you feel the speaker was credible? Why or why not?
