This program powerfully dispels the notion that there will always be a tomorrow in which we can finish today’s unfinished business and moves individuals to work and live with intentionality.

Safety: Don’t Count on 2nd Chances
Can too much experience be a bad thing? Absolutely…if it leads to complacency. The highly experienced pilots of Flight 965 were lulled into a false sense of security that led to the deaths of 160 people. Mercedes’ one-of-a-kind safety presentation uses the factual account of the crash of Flight 965 as an anchor to drive home the dangers of complacency and the importance of situational awareness.

Very informative and captivating. A message that makes you think heavily about our own safety culture, and a message we can take back to our employees. Very, very well done.
, Shawn Mydynski, HSE Coordinator
I want to thank you for coming into my life with your story. You showed me that no matter how desperate things may seem, no matter how low our spirits may get, we are in control of the outcome. I was so touched by your story and how strong you are. People have always told me that special people were put on this earth to inspire others to do better in their lives. After meeting you, I see that it is true.
, Chris Havis, Scientist
I was very touched by Mercedes’ speech. I put myself in her place. I think this should be presented at every safety meeting. On a scale of 1 to 5, I would give her a 10!
, Sital Amin, Conference Participant
A very good example of how repetition can result in accidents due to complacency. This presentation would be good for the national convention.
, Roy Chance, Participant
I wanted to email you after the conference to tell you how much I gained from your presentation. I really connected to the idea that we need to be passionate about our goals, persist until we achieve them and remain positive in the process. I’ve totally changed my vision of my future and see so much more ahead of me.
