"By Endurance We Conquer" ~ Sir Ernest Shackleton
(Shackleton burial party, Submerged.co.uk) |
In the final video of our series, the rescued crew has assimilated back into society. In 1921, Shackleton and few members of the Endurance crew embark of a journey South. However, Shackleton dies at the age of 47 of a heart attack before reaching South Georgia. The crew continues the odyssey revisits Elephant Island.
Thoughts to Ponder
- How important is it to revisit the sites of our struggles (darkest hours)?
- Have you participated in a staff ride? If you have, what did you gain from the experience?
- How can staff rides heal those involved in an incident and how can they contribute to the growth of the organization?
