The Business Book Club: Fly!

When you need to step up, what will you do?

At this Business Book Club event, sponsored by Rio Tinto, you’ll meet a modern Australian aviation hero you may not have heard of.

• Mastering your mind


• How to be a leader


• Stress and succeeding under intense pressure


• Learning from your mistakes and failing well


• Teamwork and disciplined collaboration


• Sharpening your skills


• Risk-assessment


• Being thorough


• Decision-making


• Readiness to speak-up

It’s a book whose wisdom can be applied to challenges and opportunities in your workplace as well as to your life.

His first book QF32, published in 2012, was a detailed account of what went wrong in the air that catastrophic flight and went on to become an award-winning best seller.
