SUMMARY:The Provocateurs: Episode 35 with Eileen Collins
DESCRIPTION:Eileen Collins: The First Female Space Commander\nTrailblazer Eileen Collins is a retired NASA astronaut and former Air Force Colonel. In 1995\, she became the first woman to pilot a space shuttle and in 1999\, she became the first woman to command a space shuttle mission. Eileen’s final mission in 2005 was commanding the critical return to flight mission\, the first since the space shuttle Columbia disaster. Her memoir Through The Glass Ceiling to the Stars\, was published in 2021.  \nProvocateurs hosts Des Dearlove and Steve Goldbach talk to Eileen about her remarkable journey from a young girl in small town Elmira\, New York\, who dreamed of flying\, to breaking the glass ceiling at NASA. Addressing the challenges of spaceflight\, she reveals the importance of relentless preparation\, the power of mentorship\, and her evolution from an autocratic to collaborative leader. She also shares her three fundamental elements of leadership: \n\nKnow your job\nGet the right people in place\nIntegrity: honesty and trust\n\n\nIn a candid conversation\, Eileen also reveals surprising moments of vulnerability\, including a panic attack at a press event that contrasted sharply with her calm under life-threatening space emergencies.  \nWatch the previews now: \n\n \n\n\n \n\nSubscribe to The Provocateurs Podcast \n#TheProvocateurs
