Caspar is an ordinary guy who believed he could achieve extraordinary things. With an injured back, a seasick wife and three kids under the age of ten, he took his family on the ultimate ocean adventure using everything he’d learnt about teamwork from running his own company. He’s sailed around the world twice, he’s a Hero’s Round Table speaker, and he’s one hell of a team leader.

It's one thing to listen to an inspirational person, but to learn skills from an inspirational person that you can actually apply to your business and life is rare and special. Great course.

Loved every bit. Especially the reading resources were incredibly helpful. I have already started introducing the concept of aggregation of marginal gains to my teams.

This is a supercharged Teamwork 101 for leaders course, wrapped up in some of the most useful life lessons you'll ever learn.

I loved this course! It was not only useful for business and life in general, but so inspiring.

There are many courses out there that claim to help you master teamwork and leadership, but this is the only one I've found that gives you techniques and skills that you can actually use in real life. Brilliant.

Great course! I didn't think it would be possible to learn something like leadership and teamwork online, but I was very pleasantly surprised. It was practical, instructive and quite motivating as well.

This course should not only be taken by all leaders, but by anyone who needs to achieve a goal. I'm so glad I took this and can't wait to apply the principles in my own business.

I've worked in many, many teams over the years so I was quite skeptical when I heard about this course, thinking it couldn't teach me anything I hadn't already learnt, but I was completely blown away. I wish I had taken this course years ago.
