To create a cohesive, strong, and effective team, a group of people must identify and use the unique strengths of each individual to contribute to the team’s success. In this newly blended family, the children each have their own strengths and weaknesses, and they identify and agree on strategies to use their strengths to help each other survive and support one another through moments of weakness and vulnerability. Carter, Jane, Vanessa, and Buzz have no option but to put their familial conflicts and awkwardness aside to work together, encourage one another, and build on each other’s skills to make their goal of being rescued a reality.
Carter’s primary skill, which is especially useful for survival, is his physical strength and willingness to trust it when facing risk. He often leads the group, pushing them forward, keeping the pace, and jumping into action when necessary to help the others, such as when Vanessa nearly falls off the boat in the storm. Carter’s leadership abilities are born out of his strength and self-confidence, which give him the courage to speak out and take charge. Jane’s major strength comes from her mind and her ability to see things in ways that others don’t consider.
