We can’t change history, but we can sure learn from it.
Just view training film, freezeframing it, and nail down some take-aways.

Avoid assigning blame.
Move forward.
America is all about the future.
Sarah who?
Sandusky who?
Just do it (BTW, Nike removed JoePa’s name off list).
Brand recovery. Monday-morning quarterbacking.
Some companies insist on hiring people who have failed.
It costs them less to have workers who learned hard lessons on someone else’s watch.
Second chances.
Know what not to do, or dare not repeat the same mistake.
As human, we adapt well. Survival of the fittest.
It’s by no chance that our life expectancy has risen from 49 to mid-70. Go oatmeal go.

P.S. From the President’s desk comes this announcement on Monday AM
