Publisher's Synopsis
For nearly eight decades, Outward Bound's education programs have shaped the lives of tens of thousands of participants. This is the first audiobook to describe the organization's principles in detail, told through the stories of former instructors and graduates who show how to apply them to create healthier, more effective teams, organizations, and communities. Mark Brown explores the concept of Expeditionary Leadership—central to Outward Bound's philosophy—through interviews with people such as fourth-generation business steward Laura Kohler, Home Depot cofounder Arthur Blank, and former United States senator Mark Udall, whose lives were touched by Outward Bound. These leaders show how each of us can, in our own way, use the Outward Bound philosophy to bravely face the wild unknowns in our daily lives.
