Climbing when the risks are high:
5 essential tools for your backpack
Chelsey helps leaders connect with what motivates them to lead at their greatest capacity and help their organization succeed. Packing the backpack is a critically important step prior to mountain expeditions, and forgetting one piece of equipment could derail the entire outcome. Using this framework, Chelsey decribes the 5 essential elements that all leaders must have on hand when embarking on an intimidating objective.
She emphasizes the critical role of the team, and how leaders must not only lead, but also collaborate and support in order to overcome times of stress, fatigue, and uncertainty.
Chelsey has spent half her life undertaking adventures that are subjectively regular but objectively far from easy. Her relentless curiosity and fear of the comfort zone have pushed her to become keenly aware of what’s possible if you keep taking small steps in the same direction.
Whether her stories come from creating a new life abroad, learning another language, climbing high mountains, or surviving, recovering, and starting again, Chelsey’s warmth, vulnerability and passion make just about everything relatable.
After being given a second chance in this world, Chelsey’s drive to live meaningfully and make a positive difference skyrocked to another level. Her energy and positivity are contagious, leaving people with a greater belief in themselves and determination to be more intentional with how they live and how they work.
Chelsey assures people that if they find purpose in what they do and surround themselves with the right team, they will be much more prepared to find strength when deep in the grind. She promises they are capable of accomplishing feats that today seem impossible.
