In this episode of the Sparkr Podcast I had the privilege to talk to the leader who enabled hyper complex projects and teams with thousands of people to succeed and literally reach for the stars.
I‘m talking of none other than astrophysicist Prof. Thomas Zurbuchen. Till the end of 2022 he was the Chief Scientist at NASA and with that arguably the most powerful scientist on the planet with responsibility over thousands of people and a 8 billion dollar budget.
Under his leadership, NASA successfully launched the historic James Webb Telescope and landed robots on Mars - among dozens of other impressive missions.
In addition, Thomas promotes entrepreneurs, inovators and leaders to become the best versions of themselves whereever and whenever he can.
Over his impressive carreer, Thomas learnt a lot about high perfoming teams by building and leading them. In this conversation, Thomas shares his leadership lessons, decision making process, how you create an organization that learns faster than it fails and much much more.
So please enjoy this episode of the Sparkr Podcast which was recorded in front of a live audience im summer 2023 with the extraordinary human being Thomas Zurbuchen.
And don't forget to subscribe to the podcast and leave a positive rating if you enjoy this conversation.
