High Altitude Leadership | Chris Warner | Talks at Google
Chris Warner visits Google's Mountain View, CA headquarters to discuss his book "High Altitude Leadership: What the World's Most Forbidding Peaks Teach Us About Success." This event took place on November 19, 2008, as part of the Leading@Google series.
On July 20, 2007 twenty five climbers set out for the summit of K2. Eighteen would reach the summit. Two would die. On a mountain where one-in-seven summiters die descending, it was the most successful day in K2s epic history. Leading an international expedition, and filming it for NBC TV, Chris Warner captured the mountain, in all its brutality. Now he is bringing his Emmy nominated footage, and tales of heroism, narcissism and cowardice, to the Google community.
Chris Warner has summited five 8000 meter peaks and is one of Americas top climbers. Chris Warner is not just a climbing bum, he is the owner of the Earth Treks Climbing Centers, a mid-sized company with 175 employees and three locations. Based on Chris combination of climbing skills and entrepreneurial experience, the Earth Treks team was chosen, in 2000, to guide Leadership Development Expeditions for the Wharton School of Business. Chris writings on leadership have appeared in SmartCEO magazine, Upward Bound and his latest book, High Altitude Leadership, co-authored with Don Schminke, was published this fall by Jossey-Bass. http://www.highaltitudeleadership.com
