Controlling Risk

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.
