MaxQ: Leadership Lessons from Mission Control
In the world of space exploration, MaxQ means Maximum Dynamic Pressure.

When rockets pass through MaxQ, they have to slow down.

When people work through MaxQ, they have to listen.

When leaders and professionals began working remotely, they created their own versions of mission control…all without a training manual.

Enter MaxQ, an entrepreneurial flight plan at the intersection of business, leadership, space exploration, and improvisation.

Featuring stories and perspectives from legendary astronauts, mission controllers, and other well-known scientific and creative professionals working to solve problems and avoid failure, MaxQ shows how successful leaders and teams manage risk, adapt to change, build teams, and improvise when collaborating under maximum dynamic pressure.

Because when business has to go faster…it’s time to slow down.
