Field Note #083 | The Resilience Illusion
Description
The weather was calm. The foundation was rotting.
------
Why do we assume that something capable of operating smoothly for years must also be capable of surviving disruption?
In this Field Note, we examine The Resilience Illusion: the gap between a system's history of stable performance and its demonstrated ability to withstand, adapt to and recover from unfamiliar conditions.
We look at the assumptions hidden inside reliable businesses, products, software, supply chains and professional teams.
We also examine why testing, monitoring, anticipating and learning deserve a place alongside conventional performance measures.
The aim is simple: to leave you with a better way to question the confidence you place in systems that have never been seriously challenged.
One question stays with us: what has your system actually been asked to survive?
------
We have a record of what worked.
Do we have evidence of what will survive?

Stay Tunedβ¦
