Abstract

In the book, Shackleton’s Way: Leadership Lessons from the Great Antarctic Explorer, Boggon et al explain how Sir Ernest Shackleton was able to use personal power to lead his 27-strong team, stranded in Antarctica with no communication with the outside world. The original goal was to lead a successful expedition to the South Pole. Once he realized that this was not possible, Shackleton’s goal shifted to getting all his team home safely, which he did; a remarkable achievement.
