High-altitude, high-achievement leadership
JOINT BASE ELMENDORF-RICHARDSON, Alaska — "The rope team leader is the one who sees the obstacles first, and he also sets the pace. He needs to be very aware of what other people on the rope team are walking over or around, and adjust the pace of movement. If he goes too fast and someone’s going around an obstacle, it can become a point of contention pretty quickly. That’s when rope teams can kind of fall apart. Other people have to be aware too, but the primary responsibility is on the rope team leader.”
