Description: Tough and CompetentLeadership and Team Chemistry By Eugene "Gene" Kranz First Bookshop is pleased to offer up Tough and Competent: Leadership and Team Chemistry, signed by NASA's flight director Eugene "Gene" Kranz. This is a first edition. Tough and Competent is Kranz's account of how he developed the leadership that turned novice Mercury engineers into a hardened team that helped astronauts survive aboard Apollo 11, that saved the lives of the astronauts on Apollo 13, and other highly stressful situations in Mission Control. Kranz is active at age 91 years old. First Bookshop caught up with him twice. In one picture in 2023, Kranz is shown signing Tough and Competent in Dickinson, Texas. In the second picture in 2023, he's with Apollo 13 astronaut Fred Haise surrounded by Star Wars characters at the Wings Over Houston Airshow. The copy of Tough and Competent will include both pictures, a flyer of the signing event, and a Houston Chronicle newspaper article about Kranz dated Aug.6, 2023 First Bookshop will ship Tough and Competent for free via U.S. Post Office Media Mail, with arrival expected in four days to 10 days. We will package the book with bubblewrap in a secure box. Like Tough and Competent, First Bookshop specializes in books signed by astronauts, Mission Control personnel and NASA executives. We've collected autographed books for more than 30 years!
