Cool Under Pressure

Chesley B. "Sully" Sullenberger III--doesn't sound like a hero but he is. He was the captain of USAir Flight 1549 which he had to crash land into the Hudson River this week. His cool decision making, the professional focus of the flight crew, and the amazing response of the NYC rescue teams saved the lives of all 155 people on board. That's the leadership you and I need to exhibit to our teams. No matter what happens or how challenging--cool, focused, never forgetting our purpose, taking care of our co-workers, and clients. We need some heroes today
