| 'Shackleton's Way: Leadership Lessons' (Book) by Morgot Morrell and Stephanie Capparell |
OK, so it's not a true Polar book, but we like the Shackleton-Endurance story so much we just had to offer the book to you.

Drawing on anecdotes, crew diaries, contemporary material, and interviews with some of today's leaders, the authors illustrate Shackleton's tactics. Readers will learn how to: manage crises with limited personnel and resources; create order out of chaos; hire good workers; support and inspire employees to do their best, and how to lead by personal example--with optimism, egalitarianism, humor, strength, ingenuity, intelligence, and compassion. 238 pages.
