Authors Sbastien Sasseville and Gabriel Renaud masterfully transform the lessons learned in the mind-blowing Race Across America into concrete, actionable and relatable business insights. When Sbastien Sasseville, an athlete with type 1 diabetes, decided to take part in the Race Across America solo, he knew he was embarking on the most difficult ultra-cycling race in the world. What he didnt realize was that this experience, and the work needed to be done ahead of it, would inform his thinking around a team-building model that had application beyond sports and deep into workplaces and boardrooms. This crossing of the United States from west to east, in a time trial of no more than 12 days, forces the riders to stay in the saddle for about 21 hours a day. The challenge is impossible to accomplish without an exceptional team that follows and supports the cyclist night and day. Together, Sbastien and co-author Gabriel Renaud, a high-performance athlete, corporate trainer and leader of the race team, have taken the model they used to build the Race Across America team and written Building Unstoppable Teams, a tool kit for building highly engaged teams that can accomplish the exceptional.
