When you are hundreds of miles from the nearest help, in a wild, unpredictable wilderness, a cohesive, committed team is imperative to achieve success. Four climbers trapped in a disintegrating tent in one hundred mile an hour winds. A team of strangers slowly pulling heavy pulks across the Arctic for a month. A group of mountaineers approaching the hardest climb of their lives, each sharing a goal, yet weighed down with their personal fears. All these speakers have led and been part of such teams. Basing their talks on these remarkable experiences they inform and inspire organisations to develop the key elements of successful team dynamics.
