We would never have reached the summit of Mont Blanc if we had not had the help of Pete and Hugh. They were unfailingly enthusiastic and helpful. We got to go to places and see things that would have been impossible had we not been in their capable care. They used a great mixture of goading and inspiration to help us heave our tired bodies to the top. Dr Julian Giles, Consultant Anaesthetist, Mont Blanc 2004

We all need a stretch, a purpose and meaning to work towards. We believe that when you put a challenge in your calendar, it is a powerful catalyst for positive growth and change.

A challenge mobilizes and motivates, it carries just the right spice of fear. It is compelling enough to get executives leaping out of bed in the morning. And strong enough to encourage leaders to overcome training obstacles, to adapt, to build positive habits, to see new horizons.

Detailed on this site are an a la carte range of inspiring challenges to stimulate thinking. We cover a variety of destinations and styles. And because everyone is unique we work with clients to tailor challenges to needs and dreams. This route involves appreciative dialogue to really articulate, define and own their performance challenge, and to map it closely to business and life challenges!



Our challenges are designed to:
- be inspiring, personal and challenging
- motivate an individual or team to undergo a programme of change
- provide an dynamic environment for accelerated learning
- instill a powerful sense of “If I can do this, I can do anything”
- be inclusive (there is something for everyone)

Our challenges are suitable for all senior executives – the fit, unfit, overweight, honed, meek, bold. They are difficult but doable and inspiring not terrifying. They’re not so much about acquiring technical skills as a desire to develop habits that build physical energy and capacity through positive attitudes of "I can and I will".


All Because It's There challenges and preparation summits are fully guided. All guides are UIAGM qualified and registered – considered to be the most reputable mountaineers/skiers in the world.
