He argues that modern work is too complicated for individuals to rely solely on memory or expertise. Checklists help teams communicate, follow critical steps, and prevent avoidable mistakes. By combining discipline with professional judgment, this humble tool improves safety, efficiency, and outcomes across many fields.
