Sincerely Stefanie: Don’t Be Captain Hindsight
When EHS professionals have to step up and play the part of safety superhero, one power they shouldn’t have to use is hindsight.
One of my favorite TV shows is “South Park.” While it’s raunchy and constantly borders on crossing the line, it’s great social commentary in some cases.
One particular episode I’ve seen about a dozen times features a superhero named Captain Hindsight. This fictional character sticks in my mind because the message or symbolism of him rings true when it comes to regretting a situation and having to deal with consequences that could have been avoided with some prior analysis or foresight.
