The Joint Leadership Team
Many of you are not yet familiar with the JSC Joint Leadership Team ( JLT). I hope to change that impression and introduce you to the work of this dedicated team. The JLT was started by General Jefferson D. Howell Jr. in response to the concerns you expressed following the Safety and Mission Success survey taken in 2003. The team is made up of senior leaders from JSC and all of our major contractors and subcontractors. Our initial charter was to foster an environment with a strong focus on mission safety. Much has changed since the JLT was first formed. Today, our mission is broader than launching the shuttle, operating the space station or developing our next human space vehicle. Our shared mission is to push the boundaries of human knowledge and encourage future generations to do the same. We must understand how this transition affects us, and how we position ourselves for an exciting future. We can accomplish our mission only by working together as members of a single team--the space team. We must support the continued safe operation of the programs while at the same time charting a course of future exploration. We must also create an environment that encourages you, who invest so much in the space program, to express your opinions, feel challenged and rewarded in your work, and have time to enjoy your families. I have talked before about the importance of family, but it bears repeating. There is great reward in the work we do for America's space program, but the reward is much greater when balanced with a strong home and family life. We don't have all the answers, and we may not even know all the questions to ask. You can help by becoming involved. Our success relies on all of us working together, asking questions, having our voices heard and communicating with each other in an environment of respect, honesty and openness.

contractor managers. This team, with its ability to identify tough issues, engage in frank discussions, and openly address areas of concern, is well positioned to help JSC achieve its vision of being the leader for human space exploration."

It was energizing

Mike focusing his civil servant/contractor team on meeting those challenges. The

working relationship between Mike's direct reports and the contractor senior leadership at JSC is the best that I have experienced in my long career here, and I look forward to helping drive that type of relationship to all levels of the JSC team."
