Paying Attention to Small Details

Recently, I've seen many examples where businesses don't pay attention to little details. When you see little things going wrong, it makes you wonder about the more important stuff. One example from healthcare might be this story from the Cleveland Clinic, where patients told the CEO that there were dust balls under the beds in patient rooms. Why don't staff notice these things? Why don't they have better standardized work for cleaning the patient rooms?What are some of the other problems that I've seen just in the past two weeks?
