Shackleton was clearly ahead of his time .

. . he led his men
from 1914 to 1916 using some techniques that are now
accepted by all, but I imagine were revolutionary at the
time .

. . for example, the book's authors noted that
he believed in the following:

A good boss will make a burden of work seem lighter.

One person can change an entire work environment.

It was better to replace a failed goal with a more ambitious one.

Chip-in sometimes with the work you are having others do.

In trouble, danger and despair, never give up hope.

The worse
can always be got over.
