Official Bio.

The Honorable Daniel S. Goldin is an entrepreneurial and scientific visionary, with the distinction of serving as NASA’s longest-tenured Administrator from April 1992-November 2001 reporting to three U.S. Presidents. He is credited with the re-emergence of NASA after the Cold War, as he diplomatically fostered east-west international cooperation and oversaw the redesign, construction, and initial operation of the $120B International Space Station, as well as guided the initial concept of the James Webb Space Telescope to assure it would see back to the beginnings of creation. As the founder of Cold Canyon, an innovation advisory company, and as a senior advisor to Cerberus Capital Management, his career spans space exploration and science, aeronautics, air traffic management, national security systems, semiconductors, advanced sensors, hypersonic, communications, and artificial intelligence. With his accumulated experience, Mr. Goldin is a highly sought-after leader in advancing American technologies and businesses.

It's heartbreaking to watch brilliant engineers pitch their guts out to investors who couldn't tell you the first thing about how the system could physically work. 

For the most part, the industry is lots of pattern matching on decks. 

I always ask one question: explain the physics (and then show me your tests).

You can learn everything in two minutes!

When I put Faster, Better, Cheaper into motion everyone said, "Ya can only pick two!"                                              
  
All I got to say to that is: GET OUTTA HERE!

Faster, Better, Cheaper was/is about:

1 / Developing a portfolio of technologies, rather than betting everything on one mega program.

2 / By distributing cost and risk, you strip the need for 100% guaranteed success on each project. 

Some will fail. That's the point and failure is the data.

3 / Success-per-dollar matters more than success-per-attempt. 

We launched 16 missions under FBC. Six failed. All 16 combined cost roughly what we spent on one flagship. Ten successes for the price of one.

But more than metrics, we were able to take some swings. We got back to Mars (not just as a country, but as a humanity) for heaven's sake! 

Those who say you can only pick two tend to also be the ones to stack papers of requirements three feet high and called it management.

I believe FBC (a v2.0) is required for us to mobilize as a country, across every sector, across every technology, and you know - perhaps even non-technical sectors too!

💥 So, with that, let's mobilize 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

A big sermon of mine has been: BUILD YOUR OWN GOLDEN AGE. 

I believe your Golden Age will come not from shiny announcements but:

1 / From thousands of $50M specialty manufacturers, not 10 Goliaths wiping out everything downstream.

2 / From realizing that vertical integration is a symptom of the problem, not the cure. If every company has to build its own supply chain to survive... there is no supply chain.

3 /  From capitalists who understand that not every manufacturer needs to be a venture-backed unicorn. A specialty manufacturer supplying multiple defense programs is a strategic national asset, not a "lifestyle business."

Questions I asked to snuff out accountability (this was on government contracts, but obviously can be applied to many areas of the biz): 

1. What award fee did you give your contractor last quarter?

2. What was the milestone delivered against that award fee? (Hey! Let's go check out the hardware.)

3. Who is the one person responsible for this delivery? 

What have I missed?
