"I must say that our theme of challenging ourselves to view our future as equal to an ascent of Everest has worked better than we planned... They heard loud and clear that great challenges are really hard, and they have responded in what I guess is the best way possible, by saying, "Bring it on!"

-Bill Nordstrom

"Brian's presentation uniquely combines photography, music, high adventure and personal experience to entertain, inform and inspire. Today, it's rare to find a professional speaker who can captivate an audience as well as leave people with a lasting and meaningful message. Brian is such a speaker."

-Janet Henderson Schoniger, Director of Corporate Communcations

"It was simply amazing how many people told me that they were deeply moved by your presentation. The big bonanza, however, was the numerous analogies that everyone drew between climbing Mt. Everest and selling... You have an unusual talent for evoking very positive feelings in people.

-Thomas O. Might

"Thank you very much for an amazing presentation to our sales force and management team in Orlando. You truly moved 8000 people. I am sure you could tell by the autograph seekers surrounding you after the show and the standing ovation. Chuck & I knew that your message would be perfect for our group of Type A, highly motivated over-achievers."
