Habit #4: Decide with Data with Peter Horsburgh

It’s my pleasure to welcome back Peter Horsburgh. He is the author of the ‘Five Habits of Extraordinary Reliability Engineers.’ He has a long history within reliability engineering. He essentially started in manufacturing, then moved to mining, then to power generation, and to aluminum smelting.

In this episode we covered:

  • Now we’re here to discuss habit number four; decide with data. So, what does this mean to you?
  • You mentioned data-driven debate. What is it?
  • In the book, you said problem solving should follow a framework. You mentioned problem-cause-solution-value framework. Can you elaborate a bit on that?
