“The most important learnings from the Challenge are trust and perseverance. You need to trust your teammates as they are likely to bring new and different perspectives. And perseverance, because, like climbing, it is easy to give up when you feel tired in the middle, but the moment you climb to the top and see the sunrise, you find that it was all worth it.”
