500			_aExplores the story of the 1914 British Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition led by Sir Ernest Shackleton aboard the ship Endurance as an example of exceptional leadership. Stranded on the Antarctic ice for almost two years, Shackleton?s entire crew emerged intact. Seeks to illustrate what qualities and strategies were necessary for Shackleton?s crew to endure such hardship, and still remain a cohesive team. Perkins extracts 10 strategies used by Shackleton to lead his crew to safety strategies which he believes can be used to bring success in the face of the most daunting adversity. Focuses on how-to: set a personal example with vivid symbols and behaviors, instill optimism while staying grounded in reality, reinforce the team message constantly, find something to celebrate and something to laugh about, and how to have the courage to take big risks, and more.
