Sinopse

Summit Team Success explores the crucial role of teamwork in high-stakes environments, using mountaineering expeditions as a prime example. The book argues that successful climbs hinge on team dynamics, particularly distributed leadership and adaptive communication, rather than solely on individual skill. By analyzing records from the Alpine Club, the book reveals that teams which decentralize decision-making and adjust communication strategies based on changing conditions are more likely to succeed. This approach challenges the traditional emphasis on individual heroism, highlighting collective effort in overcoming extreme challenges.

 
The book progresses by introducing the core concepts of distributed leadership and adaptive communication, then delves into case studies of landmark expeditions to illustrate these concepts in real-world scenarios. Each case study examines pre-expedition planning, in-situ decision-making, and post-expedition evaluations.

 
The book moves from analysis to application, offering practical guidelines for building high-performance teams applicable in various fields, from business to emergency response. Through historical analysis and empirical data, Summit Team Success provides evidence-based recommendations for team strategies and leadership.

Soccer Grannies - The South...

Jean Duffy

The inspirational story of an amazing group of soccer-playing South African “grannies”.
In rural South African, beloved humanitarian “Mama Beka” defied social convention and started a soccer team for the women in her community. The Soccer Grannies, as they came to be known, won over their families and villages who at first rejected the idea of older women playing soccer, and that single team quickly grew into dozens. Soon, the strength, tenacity, and pure joy of the Soccer Grannies had captured the attention of the world.
In Soccer Grannies: The South African Women Who Inspire the World, Jean Duffy, a soccer-playing mom herself, recounts how she and her team set to work to bring the Soccer Grannies to the U.S. after hearing their incredible story. Despite many obstacles that stand in their way, the Soccer Grannies finally arrive, and Jean describes the wonderful friendships and cultural exchanges that follow. But Soccer Grannies tells more than just the physical journey of the South African women; it also details the Grannies’ personal journeys, sharing poignant insights into the realities of women living in South Africa.
Life beyond the pitch has not been easy for the Grannies. They have persevered through apartheid, rampant poverty and unemployment, the loss of children to AIDS, domestic abuse, and more. But with the friendship and support of their fellow Soccer Grannies, these women face life’s challenges with dignity, humor, and hope. Their stories show to the world the power of sport and its unique ability to bring people and cultures together.

Miracle in Shreveport - A Memoir...

David Benham, Jason Benham

Twin brothers David and Jason Benham grew up with big dreams of baseball and an even bigger trust in God. Though they attended a small high school with no baseball field, turned down a professional offer so they could attend college together, and faced more than one missed pitch and injuries, they kept dreaming, praying together on the field, and believing in God’s provision for their lives. 
David and Jason’s journey, from Little League to college to professional baseball and beyond, reminds us that even when we don’t know what God is up to, He’s putting together the pieces of our life’s puzzle and executing the plans He has for each of us. 
Miracle in Shreveport tells the story of a family’s love, the power of prayer, and a game that is truly all-American. It is also the story of brotherhood staying strong, despite the threat of comparison in a profession committed to competition. Most of all, it is the story of being faithful in small steps, honoring God in the process, and trusting His hand in our lives. In this audio book, the Benhams call us to remember that when we follow God’s dream for us, we find it is better than we could have ever dreamed for ourselves.
