ALEX HARRIS


Each of us will confront our own personal Everest, it might not be 8 850m of snow but it will tax us like never before. It will test our very being and question everything we have ever known. How we react will ultimately determine our future. We can succumb and let our fears get the better of us, or we can rise to the challenge and become the people we are destined to be.

At 25 years of age, motivational speaker and mountaineer Alex Harris, became the youngest person ever to lead an expedition to Mount Everest. Later in his climbing career, he became the first South African to climb on all seven continents when he led an expedition to climb Antarctica's highest mountain. Alex uses his 13 years of experience as a mountaineer and expedition leader to give us insight into how we can overcome our personal challenges.

Does your vision challenge you? Do you lie awake at night wondering whether you'll ever be able to pull it off? Are you prepared to work with others towards a common goal? Alex confronts these challenging questions head on in his motivational talks and workshops, designed to assist you to realise your greatest potential.

We all find ourselves in a hole so dark and deep that we haven't got a clue how to get out. But it's how we act in these troughs that determines how high our peaks can be.
