Brad Borkan, who holds a graduate degree in Decision Sciences from the University of Pennsylvania, is the co-author of When Your Life Depends On It: Extreme Decision Making Lessons from the Antarctic. This adventure-based self-help book is based on the harrowing life and death decisions made by early Antarctic explorers during the Heroic Era of exploration between 1901 – 1917. While not all of the decisions made by the early Antarctic explorers were good during the most trying circumstances imaginable, very few men died. Why was this? What lessons can we apply from their decision-making to our lives? Brad and co-author David Hirzel examine unforgettable, epic stories from the days when explorers Scott, Shackleton, Amundsen and Mawson battled the most isolated environment on earth. How might you have responded in their life-and-death situations? www.extreme-decisions.com
