Facing Your Own Everest
How to conjure up courage when the stakes are high
Alex Harris relates his experience of climbing the seven summits and specifically, three expeditions to Everest over a period of nine years. From tragedy to triumph, and the heartbreak of failure to the thrill of success, this session highlights four key strategies to find courage when the chips are down.
From 'working out your inch' and figuring out the small, critical steps that make up the journey to 'stretching yourself', learning to be uncomfortable, and 'accepting the intractable' to the things we can do nothing about; and finally, the fact that we are 'part of a bigger story, Alex uses this dramatic journey to lay out some principles for success when sometimes all we need is to take the next step.

The Long White Night
How to make the IM-possible
• unsupported to the South Pole.
Alex Harris led a small team of two to become the first African's to walk unsupported and unassisted to the South Pole. For 65 days, they endured pounding winds and temperatures as low as
• 60 degrees.
This session focuses on three key strategies required to turn seemingly impossible challenges into smaller, achievable goals. These are not just strategies for high performance in a team, but are also critical life and leadership skills required to elevate our personal performance to the next level. From the 'art' of balancing the big picture to small inches, to the 'power of process', to knowing when to 'push or pull back' Alex takes you on a journey that most said was simply impossible.
The realm of the 'impossible' is within reach, we just need to know how.
