Keynote Speaker, Steve SmithACE 2024 Keynote, Steve Smith Get ready for THIS news…ACE is bringing an astronaut to the show! Senior Astronaut, Stanford Engineer and MBA, Steve Smith. His keynote address will focus on building stronger individuals, teams, and leaders. See Steve's ACE Promotional Video Below! Steve Smith dreamed of being an astronaut at age seven. He made his dream come true through sheer determination and intelligent risk taking. He is one of America’s most experienced astronauts with four spaceflights and seven spacewalks to repair the Hubble Space Telescope and to build the Space Station. During the three-decade pursuit of his dream he became a Stanford electrical engineer and MBA, General Motors Fellow, pilot, elite collegiate athlete, and IBM Product Manager. At NASA, Steve held multiple senior leadership positions, including as the Deputy Chief Astronaut leader to 135 astronauts and served as a Diplomat. He now uses this one-of-a-kind experience as a base for his current roles as board director, venture capital advisor, and keynote speaker. Steve motivates audiences using an “Explorer’s Mindset™” and disciplined protocols to improve individual, team, and leadership performance and a company’s bottom line in today’s dynamic highly competitive business environment. |
