5 The volume and complexity of what we are responsible for has exceeded our individual ability to deliver it correctly and reliably. We need a new strategy for overcoming failure, one that builds on experience and takes advantage of the knowledge people have but but somehow also makes up for our inevitable human inadequacies. It is a checklist. Paraphrased from The Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande
6 Checklists really can help! Professionals responsible for complex tasks that utilize checklists dramatically improve safety, compliance, reliability including pilots, medical personnel, builders and so on. Annual checklists can be effective to consolidate tasks, events, Board responsibilities, significant expenses, procedures and requirements from several policy areas/standards into a form that is easy to comply with. This helps to ensure LTs are in compliance with state & federal laws, LTA Standards & Practices, and the LTs own policies. Checklists should be precise, efficient, practical.
7 Don t get stuck in the weeds! Remember that as a land trust, your first priority is conservation. These tools are recommendations for your land trust to be more efficient.
