PETER HILLARY
 Peter Hillary is a powerful and dynamic speaker who takes his audience
“with him” on one of his many extraordinary experiences: to the summit of Mt
Everest; traversing Antarctica; feeding a pod of sharks; or making a terrifying descent of
a vast vertical rock face in a vicious storm. He ably connects such dramatic achievements
to the challenges faced by individuals and teams striving for excellence, coping with
change, and overcoming obstacles in their own fields.
Like his father, Sir Edmund
Hillary, Peter has climbed Mt Everest and has reached the South Pole overland; widely
recognised as two of the most significant accomplishments in the world of adventuring and
exploration. Peter assists his father in raising funds for the Himalayan Trust, which runs
42 schools and hospitals for the villages at the foot of Mt Everest.
He has a wealth of stories to tell
from a lifetime of high adventure, including over 30 alpine expeditions on mountains
throughout the world. He talks of the lessons learned from these huge challenges, and how
you can actively build a life - or a business - of your choice.
Peter’s presentations combine
humour and heart-stopping excitement with practical applications, relevant to the
client’s requirements. They are supported by superb slide and / or video footage.

A certain amount of fear is essential,

-
It is the powerful experiences that are truly
memorable - but you must be prepared to risk defeat.

Peter
Hillary is an extraordinary person and a delight for anyone to meet. I cannot imagine any
setting where he wouldn’t be the talk of the group for years to come. He appeals to
all age groups and backgrounds. He is a gentleman and a humanitarian - along with being an
extraordinary explorer. Peter Hillary is the real thing.
