Sample Pre-marketing text

Sean Chapple is no stranger to the challenges of leadership with over two decades of experience in developing and leading high performance teams in some of the world's most hostile environments. From an earlier career as an Officer in the elite Royal Marines leading men on combat operations to leading world firsts as a Polar explorer he has gained valuable insights and experiences into the harsh realities of leadership and team working.

As a record breaking explorer he has been a pioneering figure in developing high performing teams to achieve some of the most remarkable polar journeys of recent times.  Having planned, managed and led over twenty polar expeditions with more than 700 days living beyond the Arctic and Antarctic Circles and skiing more than 6,500km Sean has earned himself the nickname ' Ice Man®' along the way.

Recently Sean led a 71-day, 2,500 kilometre journey into the heart of Antarctica and back; a journey described as the 'world's toughest journey'. With a success rate of only 5% it is not surprising that more men have walked on the moon than have completed the epic journey.
