About Dave Bunting MBE

Dave’s presentation is an inspirational account of his experiences planning and leading the expedition in which he led a team of elite climbers to become the first British team to climb the formidable and rarely attempted West Ridge of Mount Everest. It is a riveting and awe-inspiring account of the leadership skills and determination necessary to select the right team, motivate and engage them and build a shared vision that will enable them to reach their goal.

Dave paints an extraordinary picture of successful teamwork, tough decision-making, personal challenge and enduring friendship in the most extreme environments. With stunning images from the rare vantage point of the West Ridge of Mount Everest, it is a presentation that will inspire, move, entertain and leave a lasting impression.

Dave Bunting is a great mountaineer, exceptional leader and truly inspirational speaker, who is equally at home talking Leadership Development or Outdoor and Adventure.
