Resilience Expert

Discover why the words practice and perfect should never be used in the same sentence. Through powerful aviation stories and practical, real-world lessons, Cran challenges audiences to embrace uncertainty, rethink failure and discover that resilience is simply getting comfortable with feeling uncomfortable. Drawing on more than 31 years and 8,000 hours in the cockpit—and a life-changing stay in ICU following brain surgery—he demonstrates why the goal has never been perfection. It’s confidence.
