Episode #94 - How A STEM Career is Made Better with STEAM with Joseph Jefferson

Episode 94: How A STEM Career is Made Better with STEAM with Joseph Jefferson How do the arts help leaders navigate through a VUCA world? NASA's award-winning flight engineer, Joseph Jefferson discusses how his arts background trained him to be adaptable, observant, and emotionally aware throughout his STEM journey. He and other JPL-NASA and CalTech employees and students just finished an 'off-off Broadway' play debut, 'From the Earth to the Moon'. The process and final production provide further evidence that people exposed to the arts will have a greater edge in innovative thinking in non-arts fields (business, science, marketing, and entrepreneurship). Keep the 'A' in STEM to make STEAM and blast off into the future! Listen as Joseph shares his playful experience, vulnerable insight, and out-of-this-world wisdom for people to prepare for this future of work!
