Talks by fighter pilot and Czech astronaut in training Aleš Svoboda. Twenty years of cockpit decision-making turned into frameworks your team can apply Monday morning.
Aleš Svoboda is a Czech Air Force fighter pilot and one of seventeen finalists in the European Space Agency's 2022 astronaut selection — chosen from more than 22,500 applicants.
His day job is making fast, correct decisions when information is incomplete and the cost of hesitation is measured in lives. Twenty years in the cockpit — Gripen, L-159, NATO Baltic Air Policing, F-35 program — plus astronaut training, plus a PhD in aviation and rocket engineering. That's the material he turns into frameworks your team can use Monday morning.

How to decide fast when information is incomplete and stakes are high. OODA loops, decision thresholds and the cost of waiting.
Technology accelerates. Humans decide. How to stay relevant, what to delegate to AI, and what only people can do under pressure.
Plan – brief – fly – debrief. How aviators weaponize feedback and turn errors into competitive advantage your team can copy.

Clients, conferences and broadcasters who've put him in front of their teams — and the camera.
