Climbing Mount Everest is hard. Climbing Mount Everest blind is impossible. Or at least that's what they told Erik Weihenmayer. This incredible true story follows Erik's quest to reach the summit of the tallest peak in the world - and the amazing team that made it possible.

Climbing Mount Everest is hard. Climbing Mount Everest blind is impossible. Or at least that's what they told Erik Weihenmayer. This incredible true story follows Erik's quest to reach the summit of the tallest peak in the world - and the amazing team that made it possible.

Erik Weihenmayer has never believed in limitations - even though he is blind. And he's good at questioning other people's perceptions of his abilities. That's why it was easy to ignore the ones who said he was crazy to pursue his dream of climbing Mount Everest. Erik knew that he couldn't do it alone. And here's the key - he never wanted to. He knew that his vision could only be achieved through the power of teamwork.

Remarkable, yet unfathomable, Everest is essential for anyone who has ever worked on a team - or is responsible for making teams strive to reach higher performance goals. Unlike any other training program, Erik's journey vividly illustrates the weight and significance of teamwork and leadership at a most crucial time.

Benefits:
  • Illustrates the power of vision
  • Demonstrates true teamwork
  • Strengthens leadership skills

Puts an emotional punch into the potential of teamwork. by Reviewer of Training Med (Cambridge, MA) Aug 17, 2007
Produced by FranklinCovey, this program is stunningly filmed. The visual quality is worthy of a commercial movie. This video doesn't teach someone's theory of teams. It isn't a rah-rah, fire-'em-up show either. Although brief, it isn't as limited in purpose as a meeting opener. It isn't about the world's tallest mountain and a blind climber. It's an extended illustration of what people can do when they work as a close-knit team.
