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.

Mercedes was spectacular. One of the best commencement addresses I’ve heard in 30 years. I wish I’d kept track of all the glowing comments made about her speech.
, Dr. Dean Hubbard, President
The group found your messages important and very inspiring as we were coming out of our busiest time of the year. It is very easy for us to get trapped in the routine of our daily lives. Thank you!
, Kara Lynch, Director
Mercedes’ very personal presentation captivated, inspired and uplifted our audience. This impassioned young woman’s story of determination and leadership in the face of adversity has many beneficial lessons.

Thanks for all of your hard work and dedication. We have received many complimentary emails from attendees on how valuable your session was. I look forward to working with you again.
, Collin Rorrie, CEO
Words cannot describe how much your speech touched my heart. I have seen many inspirational speakers in my lifetime, but I have never been as moved as I was last night. It would be fair to say that Zig Ziglar and Tony Robbins have some competition. This world needs more people like you.
