The Mars Project: How Design & Innovation Got Us There In January 2004, twin robotic explorers named Spirit and Opportunity landed on Mars. Expected to last for 90 days, the two rovers have now been exploring the Martian surface for more than six years. The development of Spirit and Opportunity required a team of more than 4,000 highly motivated engineers and scientists who overcame a host of technical challenges, which were multiplied by an extraordinarily tight schedule literally driven by the alignment of the planets. In this keynote session, Dr. Steven Squyres discusses Spirit and Opportunity's initial conception through development, along with the design process that led to such extraordinary performance, launch, landing, and six years of exploration on Mars. Never Fly Solo! The Power of Partnership to Reach New Heights in Business and Life Manufacturing employees may feel like they are flying solo. However, they have support staff, co-workers and managers, as well as a network of suppliers, vendors and distributors on which they can rely. In today's super-charged, highly competitive world of rapid and constant change, those who understand this and can build trust and work as a team will create a winning and sustainable business. In this keynote session, Lt. Col. Waldo Waldman will share insights into how to employ loyal "wingmen" to promote communication, integrity and trust; develop a collaborative culture of excellence and mutual support; and execute a safe operational game plan to survive, grow and win when the stakes are high.
