Jeff
Evans grew up in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia where a sense of
adventure and curiosity was cultivated early on, carrying Jeff around
the globe in search of challenge and discovery.
Having
established himself as one of the world’s most respected mountaineering
guides, as well as a highly sought after motivational speaker, Jeff’s
phenomenal story incorporates many stunning images from his global
adventures. As the primary climbing guide for blind climber, Erik
Weihenmayer, he tells of the hard work and exceptional communication
skills necessary to allow them to achieve seemingly impossible feats by
guiding Erik successfully to the tops of mountains all over the world,
including the summit of Mt Everest.Whether hanging from a helicopter on
a dangerous search and rescue mission to save stranded climbers, or
guiding the Duchess of York up a rock face, Jeff has achieved success on
every level and brings his lessons to the corporate world. Drawing on
many of the metaphors hidden in the world of adventure and bringing them
to his audience in a humorously inspiring way, Jeff’s messages are
potent and tactile. He demonstrates how critical it is to focus on
detail, embrace small successes, and disregard the expectations others
create in order to achieve your own potential.
Jeff
has been featured on The Today Show, CNN Live,
Nightline, ESPN, and Good Morning America, as well as
in such publications as Time, Outside, Climbing,
and Trail Runner Magazines. Jeff is also a main character in the
outstanding documentary, Farther Than the Eye Can See, directed
by award winning filmmaker Michael Brown. Nominated for two Sports Emmy
Awards, this film lends an intimate look inside that historical ascent
of Mt. Everest by a blind climber.
As the
audience is captivated by Jeff’s rich storytelling style, his power
themes of Leadership, Teamwork and Commitment are effortlessly infused.
His goal is to inspire and motivate listeners to believe in themselves
and their ability to accomplish the impossible, be willing to risk
failure in order to achieve success, and move toward their goals well
prepared and ready for the challenge.
