Description

In It Should Never Happen Again, Dr. Mike Lauder provides a deep look into the effectiveness of public inquiries and commissions. While these bodies are often established to address failures, the author argues that they frequently fail to deliver the intended outcomes or lasting improvements in risk governance. This book examines the significant amount of time and taxpayer money spent on conducting inquiries and implementing their subsequent recommendations. Dr. Lauder suggests that the current methods used by those conducting these inquiries may be fundamentally flawed, potentially leading to a lack of meaningful learning. By exploring the gaps between what these inquiries aim to achieve and their actual results, this work offers a critical perspective on how risk governance is managed and why repeating mistakes remains a common issue despite constant investigation.
