The Past
“He who forgets the past is condemned to repeat it.”
It occurs to me that each and every company, government and organization should have in a position of power a historian. A person or department who is charged with watching, noting and recording the mistakes of the past and with the authority to step forth and have a voice at the table when that mistake is in danger of looming forth again.
A workable definition of insanity is repeating the same action yet expecting different results. Without a proper voice to serve as the memory of a group, there’s little chance to move forward.
