Product Description
"Adventure isn't hanging on a rope on the side of a mountain. Adventure is an attitude that we must apply to the day-to-day obstacles in life - facing new challenges, seizing new opportunities, testing our resources against the unknown and, in the process, discovering our own unique potential."
In Straight to the Top and Beyond, John Amatt, a mountain climber, educator, and President of One Step Beyond WorldWide, uses the metaphor of adventure - climbing Mount Everest - to articulate a strategy for addressing the challenges of a rapidly-changing world.
Straight to the Top and Beyond is a fascinating account of the author's climb to the peak of Mount Everest; it is also an inspiring call to businessmen and women to become adventurers; to seek out difficulty and to stretch their potential.
