Reaching New Heights: The Power of Connection

• April 2019
Reaching New Heights is a gripping and informative presentation built around a two-month expedition and world record set by Alan Mallory and three members of his immediate family on Mount Everest. From teetering across ladders spanning seemingly bottomless crevasses and fighting the many altitude-related sicknesses to climbing through a blizzard in the dead of night, every segment of the climb was filled with intense, extraordinary challenges. Alan’s presentation is about the resilience, perseverance and strategy that contributed to his family's achievement on the mountain as well as the importance of connection, specifically with our environment, our team members and ourselves.
