Apollo 13 – Leadership lessons
We had a screening of Apollo 13 yesterday. This was the first movie in the Leadership workshop, and everyone enjoyed it.
I was thrilled to see the various types and perspectives of leadership in the movie. Right from the flight director – Gene Kranz, Jim Lovell (the commander) and everybody else. The different moods of the flight director, how he managed the whole mission, Jim taking control of things, providing opportunity to team members, the trust on the team, commitment demonstrated by everyone and the whole experience of the mission. Everything felt real, everything felt so much true to life.
I was inspired the most by Gene Kranz. His famous quote too: “Failure is not an option”!
