    Trekking Through Compliance: Episode 63 – For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky

     

    In this episode of Trekking Through Compliance, we consider the episode   For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky which aired on November 1, 1968, Star Date Unknown.

    McCoy calls Kirk to sickbay and informs him that the ship’s Chief Medical Officer (himself) has contracted an incurable fatal disease called xenopolycythemia and has only one year to live. However, McCoy assures Kirk that he will still be able to do his job until the end.

    Suddenly, the Enterprise is attacked and diverts and determines their point of origin, an asteroid 200 km in diameter, which is actually a nuclear-powered spaceship on a collision course with planet Daran V. The inhabitants do not know that they are on a spaceship, except for one old man who had climbed a mountain when he was young and intones “For the world is hollow and I have touched the sky.” After uttering this, the oracle punishes the old man with death by means of a subcutaneous “instrument of obedience.”

    They are able to put the ship back on course. They also discover databanks of the Fabrini containing a great deal of medical knowledge, including the cure for McCoy’s xenopolycythemia.

    Compliance Takeaways:

    1.     How do you manage?

    2.     Executives having skin in compliance.

    3.     As a compliance professional, do you have empathy?
