The inspiration for the film Coach Carter

Average is Just Not Good Enough. PERIOD!

Commander of the most complex science research space mission ever!

Astronaut Rick Searfoss, Retired USAF Colonel

“Apogee” — Taking Teams to the Top!

LEADERSHIP!

When famed high school basketball coach Ken Carter locked his undefeated, state play-off bound team out of the gym because 15 of the 45 players were not living up to the classroom achievements they agreed to, he sent a powerful message about the value of education, account-ability, integrity, teamwork and leadership.

Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from this remarkable man who motivated a high school basketball team to greatness — on and off the court — and inspired a movie based on the story.

Successful human space missions demand that hundreds of different teams perform flawlessly and consistently. A Space Shuttle crew must act in unity as one of the most finely honed teams possible, with billions of dollars and their own lives rid-ing on their performance. They also need to interact with and motivate the members of a huge variety of other specialized teams to truly prepare for and carry out a mission. The dynamic and difficult endeavors of human space flight demand the ab-solute best of its teams, and the lessons apply to all of us. Rick Searfoss, with hundreds of experiences in every team role in fighter jet squadrons, test flying teams, space flight crews, and especially in serving as the commander of what is considered to be the most complex Space Shuttle mission ever, shares his teamwork legacy in this fascinating keynote address.
