Chris Hadfield


First Canadian Commander of the International Space Station

@Cmdr_Hadfield

As the first Canadian Commander of the International Space Station, Colonel Chris Hadfield has had the type of career one can only dream of – just like he did as a child watching the Apollo 11 moon landing.
As a metaphor for pursuing our dreams we’re often told to reach for the stars and Chris literally did it. The commitment, intelligence, sacrifice, and hard work that allow him to achieve his dreams have taught him some valuable lessons over his 20+ year career – and have left him with some incredibly riveting stories and advice to give.
Now he wants to share his experiences. In his passionate and inspiring talks, Hadfield imparts the useful and practical lessons he’s learned throughout his remarkable career – in the fields of leadership, teamwork, collaboration, science, and technology – in space and on Earth.
