Climate Crisis: How to lead through adversity with Tim Jarvis.
Climate Crisis: How to lead through adversity with Tim Jarvis.Tim Jarvis is an incredible person. He is an explorer, a scientist, a climate change activist, and a world-class leader.Tim has 25 years of experience in environmental science and exploration expeditions to some pretty extreme places.In 2013, Tim led an expedition that recreated Shackleton’s “double” which saw Tim and his crew sail 1500km’s across the Southern Ocean from Elephant Island to South Georgia. They then climbed over South Georgia’s mountainous interior, all whilst wearing period clothing and using the same rudimentary equipment and technology that Shackleton used.Tim has used his platform and influence for good. He is on a mission to teach people that they can make a difference when it comes to climate change. All we need to do is break it down into bite-sized chunks and then focus on what we can control.Check out Tim Jarvis' website here - Timjarvis.org Learn more about the Shackleton Epic here - https://www.timjarvis.org/base-camp/Connect with Tim here - https://www.timjarvis.org/contact/----Click here to Become a VIP supporter of Lead On Purpose: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1583287/supportIf you would like to help James continue to bring on world-class guests, please consider making a small recurring donation to cover the back end, admin and editing costs.
