"The #astronaut world is hyper-focused on cooperation. And I think this comes from lessons learned from the past.’
Astronauts used to be selected for missions based largely on their individual skills and performance, says European Space Agency astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti – but that didn’t always translate into solid team performances on missions.
Today, she explains, the emphasis has shifted. Teamwork and leadership – in particular the ability to lead and be led – are factored into selection and training. There are important lessons here for leaders around the globe, she says, especially in today’s fragmented and uncertain world.
