A forum where students of fire and leadership come together to discuss, debate and exchange leadership development concepts, experience, and thoughts with an intent to promote cultural change in the workforce and strengthen the wildland fire service and the communities they serve.
Ernest Shackleton and his Antarctic expedition has been a study within the WFLDP since its formation. After 107 years, Shackleton's lost ship "Endurance" was found at the bottom of the Weddell Sea, renewing excitement for the leadership story. I encourage you to learn about (or better yet, share your knowledge of) the expedition.
We have started a list of resources you can use to conduct a case study of the expedition and one of the most powerful stories of resilience on record. We challenge you to share your resources in the comments.
