"lndustry X is behind in adopting IT tools, it's really late to the game in tech!"
Imagine instead if industry X is right where it should be, progressing at the pace that makes the most sense for keeping people safe, maintaining trust and making sensible long-term investments.
The constant narrative of "lagging behind" helps no one, but instead creates an environment of stress that is a foundation for poorly grounded decisions that put people at risk. If anyone is "late", that's an opportunity, not a weakness.
