Keynote Speaker and Ski Mountaineer Jon Kedrowski

Storms Can Weaken Us, or They Can Strengthen Us

It's a choice and a mindset.  No matter where we live or what we do, we all face storms in life.  They can be literal storms, like a hurricane, or they can be figurative, like a company struggling financially or a family member experiencing significant health issues.  


How do we stay positive and productive while we get through these storms, which no matter how bad they can be, will eventually end? How can we embrace the uncertainty that comes along with storms and learn to dominate in adverse times?


After experiencing so many literal and figurative storms in his own life, keynote speaker Jon Kedrowski has developed a mindset and strategy to weather these storms and stay prepared for upcoming opportunities and wants to share them with your organization.  


As a veteran of numerous foreign mountain expeditions to dangerous places, Jon will not only motivate your team, he will also entertain with his stories of adventure and risk-taking.

Weathering Storms and Staying Prepared

What Does It Mean to Be Everest Ready?

With the pandemic and it's ongoing economic impacts, many are struggling with productivity and positivity as they balance the needs of their job, their kids, and all the other home distractions.  


"All storms, no matter how bad they are, will always pass, and the blue sky will always prevail".


We can choose to be stuck in place, worrying about everything we've lost and wishing things would return to normal, or we can focus on the things in our control and use this time to set ourselves up for success when life does return to normal.  This is what Jon calls being "Everest Ready".


Does your company or organization have questions about how to move forward in such an uncertain environment?  How do you plan for next week, or month, or year for what lies ahead? There's so much uncertainty, not just with the pandemic, but with everyday problems too.


As a veteran of 5 Everest expeditions and now a winter K2 expedition weathering frequent brutal storms, as well as on other 8000m peaks, Jon has learned many lessons about not only surviving through isolation and uncertainty, but thriving.


As a keynote speaker, Jon will uplift and inspire your organization with daily actionable items to help you through whatever tough times you are facing now and in the future.

Jon was an incredible speaker and brought our group a brand new perspective on what it means to go through challenges and rise above them when it counts!
