IMPRINTS IN THE SNOW : High Altitude Leadership Reflections This is a strong team-building programme in three phases [see below]. The course has been designed to take the top echelon of an organization through a formidable challenge in which the individual and group's values are challenged, so as to forge a bond within the group. The course draws on Deshun's knowledge as a trainer and facilitator in the area of personal and group psychology , and on her knowledge as a mountaineer. PHASE 1 : Deshun leads a 1 day IMPRINTS IN THE SNOW seminar with the group in which personal motivation and perspective, as well as vision and team dynamics are explored at a level appropriate to executives. At the same time, the group is given its preparation kit PHASE 2: 3 months later The formidable challenge. The group takes on Mount Kilimanjaro (a 7 day expedition) or a trek to Everest Base Camp (12 day expedition) under the leadership of Deshun or associate Ronnie Muhl.
