Join Executive Speakers Bureau May 19-20 for this two-day virtual event granting access to some of the world's foremost business thinkers, including former astronaut Mike Massimino, who will share his tips on how to survive and thrive in isolation.

MEMPHIS, Tenn., May 18, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Executive Speakers Bureau is pleased to announce the first ESB Virtual Summit on May 19-20, 2020 featuring ten elite business keynote speakers that include former executives, bestselling authors, thought leaders, and even an astronaut. You will gain cutting edge insights into the new workplace and how to innovate during this unique time. As we embrace this time of unprecedented change, you can equip yourself and your team with the tools and training to prepare for the future, increasing your knowledge and forging ahead to lead through uncertainty.

Mike Massimino, a former NASA astronaut, is a professor of mechanical engineering at Columbia University and the senior advisor for space programs at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum. He received a BS from Columbia University, and MS degrees in mechanical engineering and technology and policy, as well as a PhD in mechanical engineering, from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Mike will kick off day two of the ESB virtual summit with his presentation titled, "Surviving and Thriving in Isolation." Mike has experienced the greatest isolation a human being could ever know: the solitude of space, hundreds of miles above humanity. A NASA astronaut for 18 years, Massimino spent about a month total sheltering in place—or, more accurately, sheltering in space—aboard two separate missions on the space shuttle, donning a suit and stepping out into the ether to repair the Hubble telescope, and taking in the greatest view a human could ever know. In this timely session, Mike shares tips on how to make the most of isolation, the importance of keeping lines of communication open, and ways to pursue meaningful distractions (emphasis on meaningful).
