This year, explorer Ben Saunders attempted his most ambitious trek yet. He set out to complete Captain Robert Falcon Scott's failed 1912 polar expedition — a four-month, 1,800-mile round trip journey from the edge of Antarctica to the South Pole and back. In the first talk given after his adventure, just five weeks after his return, Saunders offers a raw, honest look at this "hubris"-tinged mission that brought him to the most difficult decision of his life.

It sounds counterintuitive, but by 2030, many of the world's largest economies will have more jobs than adult citizens to do those jobs.

But to do that, they need to start by changing the culture in their businesses. Watch »

  I want a new tool with the intuition of google and amazon to alert me when it is time move to a new job. In context, I've moved twice - over 500 KM - in the past four years to find work in my field. Then there was the resultant stress of the application and interview process, which can take months. Months with no income. The employer loses out in my expertise as well, waiting for the right candidate. The process is antiquated considering these new tools we have to track trends, gaps, preferences, and skills.

I live in an area with a highly mobile workforce, and people are moving here from all over the world. I see a key component of a thriving economy in the face of such disruption is better use of the tools I've mentioned to match gaps with skills.

We will need such revolutionary support with the coming labor shortage."
