Question

is voluntary acts of initiative action appropriate to addressing the situation in the case study the Challenger and Columbia shuttle disaster? why?

Answer 1

Voluntary acts of initiative action could have been helpful in decreasing the impact of the Challenger and Columbia shuttle disaster. This is so because voluntary acts of initiative action would have established sense of responsiveness and proactiveness among the team and there would have been clear communication lines. The probability of any kind of miscommunication would have been dismissed in such a scenario. Thorough risk assessment, climate change assessment as well as run time testing of the shuttle would have been conducted and so the probability of the shuttle crashing could have been decreased significantly.
