The Real Right Stuff
As one of less than a hundred people who have commanded a human space mission, Colonel Rick Searfoss speaks on leadership, teamwork, and personal performance with authority born of in-depth personal experience. He has piloted two Space Shuttle missions and commanded a third, with over 939 hours in space and 5400 hours flying time in 61 different types of aircraft. His first space flight in 1993 set the record for the longest duration Space Shuttle mission. In 1996 he piloted Atlantis to the Russian space station Mir.

"I just wanted to thank you very much for the outstanding job you did speaking to our National Account Managers during their Top Gun Program Graduation Dinner. The feedback has been nothing short of stupendous. Honestly, they are still talking about how surprised they were to have such a prestigious speaker that not only took the time to find out about the audience but also took time during dinner and afterwards at the hotel to share your experiences with them! These folks have been in the pharmaceutical industry an average of 20+ years and have been exposed to numerous keynote speakers. They have all expressed their gratitude and surprise that they finally had a speaker that understood who they were, what their challenges were, and customized the talk to fit their needs."
- Joe Gilhooly, Senior Manager, Managed Healthcare Training, Aventis Pharmaceuticals
