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.

You were the talk of the Convention. You held our members in rapt attention. I enjoyed your video, but it did not do you justice! Your presentation is so much more powerful.
, Susan Logan, Operations Director
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.

[Mercedes’ presentation] was inspirational and caused me to change how I view what I do for this organization and in my life.
, Anonymous Participant, National Training Conference
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
Your presentation was wonderful from beginning to end. We needed to hear your story to revise our perspectives and values.
