About the speaker:

Fresh from a trek to remote provinces of the highest mountains in the world and a surprise encounter with the Dalai Lama, international business and leadership expert and Hall of Fame keynote speaker, Eileen McDargh, shows how outdoor experiences become powerful metaphors for life-changing lessons about work and life.  With her latest book Gifts from the Mountain:  Simple Truths for Life’s Complexities, and the new release of a short film based on the book, she invites readers to take a hike and discover their own footnotes for walking through life.

Eileen McDargh will demonstrate the techniques she has developed to tackle obstacles in business and life using her own book, Gifts from the Mountain as well as the supplemental film created by Producer/Director Cindy Bright, and filmed in the Vail Valley's own back yard.
