A manager that has clear goals and strategies in place is more likely to succeed even when faced with the greatest types of adversity.

Apollo 13 Formations of group dynamics are important to achieving a set of goals set forth by a group of individuals. Groups tend to follow a natural course of cohesion and function.

The Apollo 13 flight demonstrated teamwork and solid decision-making in a way that had saved their lives.

Apollo 13 Questions 1.I’d first have to say that the head of mission control on the ground was definitely important in the salvaging of Apollo 13.
