Description

Jim Wetherbee, the only five-time Space Shuttle commander, presents thirty techniques that astronauts use-not only to stay alive in the unforgiving and deadly environment of space, but also to conduct high-quality operations and accomplish complex missions. These same techniques, based on the foundational principles of operating excellence, can help anyone be successful in high-hazard endeavors, ordinary business, and everyday life. Controlling Risk shows you how to embrace these techniques as a way of operating and living your life, so you can predict and prevent your next accident, while improving performance and productivity to take your company higher

About the Author
Jim Wetherbee is the only astronaut to have commanded five Space Shuttle missions. After graduating from the University of Notre Dame with a bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering, he began his life-long journey of controlling risk as a naval aviator, while flying in single-seat cockpits from aircraft carriers on the high seas. Wetherbee's leadership roles as a military test pilot, astronaut, and safety executive in the oil and gas industry-from the front lines to the executive level - have given him valuable experiences and insights into dangerous businesses.
