  • Episode 1 of 1: Learnings From Space For The Workplace, With NASA 4-D
    Jul 13 2025

    Adam Thorn interviews award-winner Paul Hawkins on the Secret Sauce of High Performance, according to NASA

    This conversation between Adam and Paul explores why the 4-D program is so effective at creating high-performing teams. There is also a juicy serving of neuroscience and how leaders can optimise human and artificial intelligence in creative problem-solving at a strategic or organisational level. Paul discusses the skills required by leaders in 2030 and how these are sequenced in Crazy Might Work's Leading4Breakthrough® program. Leaders combine critical thinking and creative problem-solving with artificial intelligence to achieve extraordinary outcomes.

  • Charlie Pellerin and Paul Hawkins - Fireside Chat About the Revamped NASA 4-D Leadership Program
    Sep 27 2024

    Charlie Pellerin (Former Director of Astrophysics, NASA) and Paul Hawkins (Chief Combobulator, Crazy Might Work) discuss the origins of the NASA 4-Dimensional Leadership Program and why it has been transformational globally since launching in the late 1990’s. The program has been voluntarily completed by over 1,500 NASA teams, contributing to NASA being named Best Place to Work in US government for the twelfth year in a row (May, 2024). Paul talks about the new program which now incorporates simulations and updates from the current space program, as well as contemporary neuroscientific research, making it a leadership and team development experience like no other.

  • Episode 1 of 1: Leadership Lesssons from Frontiers Like Space
    Jun 18 2024

    The Space Shuttle Challenger and Columbia disasters, along with other failed missions led NASA to rethink how it fostered leadership and culture. Now, Crazy Might Work is using an ultra-modern version of the NASA 4-Dimensional Leadership Program, (based on the current space program) to share those learnings with other organisations and leadership teams.

    In this special episode recorded at the Australian Space Summit in May 2024, Paul Hawkins talks to host Adam Thorn about the program, it's origins in Antarctica, whether leaders are born or made, and how NASA became the best place to work in federal government for the 12th year in a row.
