Dear Juan Luis,
You have touched on what was most touching to me about the "everyday
heroism" of the miners. I am also eager to learn more about how they
opened and held the space within their sixty nine days of captivity.
As seen up to here it seems that they were very successful and
extraordinary in all this transcendental sphere. With no doubt that
what they have put in stake here was the best of each one of them, and
sure we all can learn a lot of their most profound experience.
Love and warm wishes from a warm autumn morning,
Christine

Dear Jaime thank you very much, no doubt you're right that this
experience will draw up many lessons, and still the complete story
has many chapters that will be written.
In my humble opinion there are four initials distinctions to do:
1. Nothing of all this drama probably would have happened if the
owners of the mine, which are private, they could have adopted the
minimum security measures required. This is another sad example of
how little importance is given to the human factor by many medium
and small entrepreneurs in Chile (and not only in mining). Case is
also one of our greatest and best opportunities for development.
2. The Chilean people and especially the one of the mining, which is
predominant in northern Chile, is accustomed to adversity and has a
high capacity for resilience. In the coming days there will be more
clarity about how they opened and held the space within their sixty
nine days of captivity. As seen up to here it seems that they were
very successful and extraordinary in all this transcendental sphere.
With no doubt that what they have put in stake here was the best of
each one of them, and sure we all can learn a lot of their most
profound experience.
3. With the exception already noted for small and medium-scale
mining, the large Chilean mining industry has a good professional
and technical level. Achieving the target up with six hundred sixty
feet deep, was a work of high engineering and of jewelry precision.
Almost a miracle some say. And also they knew how to request the
necessary assistance and support of exceptional professionals
foreigners, mainly Americans and Australians.
4. There has been a clear political will to do everything necessary
to save these thirty-three lives. New heroes and some more young
great leaders have emerged, pulling the maximum political benefit
from the circumstances. And despite of some kind of over
exploitation that makes me shame, I think that they've done well and
that we can be optimistic that this iconic experience will become an
effective lever for the development of work and the labor relations
in Chile, in some safer and healthier conditions.
Thanks Jaime again for your kind words and good wishes, and I am
counting the days for that for the first time I'll be able to give
you a big hug on our next XIX WOSonOS in Chile.
I'll see you later my dear friend,
Juan Luis

Asunto: [OSLIST] A great rescue
Dear colleagues,
Take this opportunity to express my satisfaction and happiness for
the successful rescue that is being completed in Chile. A special

I am quite sure that several lessons arise from this unprecedented
operation.
