Summary

Mapbox, an official gold partner of the 2022 Rebelle Rally, participated in a four-day intensive training in Ridgecrest, California, to learn off-road driving and analog navigation skills. The experience offered valuable leadership lessons, emphasizing focus, learning from mistakes, owning responsibilities, and maintaining momentum in uncertain situations. The training highlighted the importance of dedicating full attention to challenges, quickly moving past errors to maintain energy and progress, taking full ownership of actions to enhance agency, and keeping momentum even when the path ahead is unclear. Participants discovered that these lessons applied not only to off-road navigation but also to personal and professional growth, encouraging them to tackle intimidating unknowns with confidence and determination. The event, which runs from October 6th to 15th, promises further insights from Mapbox's collaboration with the Rebelle crew and partners.
