Let Me Tell You a Reliability Story
podcast episode with speaker Fred Schenkelberg
We always tell and listen to stories—anecdotes, encounters, best practices, near misses, memories, etc. We also influence how we interpret the world through the stories we tell ourselves. Plus, we often work to alter the stories others have in their head as we work to improve reliability.
Stories are a powerful way to convey information in a memorable manner. People remember stories (maybe not the details, but the gist or point), whereas they quickly forget a table of facts. So, how do you go about telling a memorable story about a Weibull plot of field data? Or a mean cumulative plot of a repairable system?
Let’s explore the practice of storytelling when in the role of a reliability engineer or manager. Plus, let’s examine a few methods to become an impactful storyteller.
This Accendo Reliability webinar was originally broadcast on 14 December 2021.
