A short article which argues that resilience is natural; at least for the human contribution (sharp and blunt ends), to system resilience.
'It’s pretty evident that safety thinking has to evolve and cope with an ever more complex environment. But survival in challenging environments is what humans evolved to do best.'
'So let’s stop arguing. Resilience is natural, it’s essential. We’ve always had it – let’s use it intelligently.'
The missing aspect is how; the 'how-to' use resilience involving thinking, using our brain, improving the way we think about safety in operations, but this might assume that we are allowed to think in a controlling, SOP dominated safety culture.
