Journey to Everest: The Unsung Heroes of Servant Leadership
Celebrate and Inspire Hardworking Human Service Professionals

Isn't high time we celebrate hard-working unsung heroes and revitalize big-hearted professionals dedicated to serving others?  If not now, then when?

This uplifting speech celebrates and inspires unsung heroes in the human services profession by getting to the bottom of an unforgettable journey to the roof of the world. Peter didn't make it to the top of Mt. Everest. The truth of life is that not everyone touches the pinnacle of the world’s greatest mountain or ascends to be boss of a great organization. This story is about the rest of us, the hardworking professionals behind the scenes who succeed when others succeed. Even those who achieve great heights like Sir Edmund Hillary have their team of nameless unsung heroes (350 Sherpas put him on top first!). It’s high time to honor dedicated and under-appreciated servant leaders who give tirelessly and trust that in small way we can make a big difference by supporting others through the ups and downs of their “everyday Everest” challenges. This presentation celebrates the journey of life and it’s infinite possibilities for love with professionals who dedicate their time and talents to serving others – whether for a reason, a season or a lifetime.

Themes: Legacy, Motivation, Recognition, Servant Leadership, Team Spirit
