Keynote Speaker: Shane Kimbrough: Aspire to Inspire
The preparation for a space flight takes years and includes rigorous scientific and technical briefings, shuttle and space station instruction, physiological and psychological training, flight training, and wilderness survival training. Lessons in stress management, survival, and discipline happen well before an astronaut takes that famed walk out to their spacecraft. This rigorous training is a setup for success in space and in life. In this address, Kimbrough shares tips and tools for success on topics including leadership, high-stakes problem solving, setting goals and perseverance. He’ll also share inspiring images from his time in space that illustrate just how “worth it” following your dreams can be!
