Straight to the Top and Beyond
Nine Keys for Meeting the Challenge of Changing Times

Discover the Potential that Lies within you
and learn to make the most of opportunities.

Adventure isn't hanging on a rope on the side of a mountain. Adventure is an attitude that we must apply to the day-to-day obstacles in life - facing new challenges, seizing new opportunities, testing our resources against the unknown and, in the process, discovering our own unique potential."

In Straight to the Top and Beyond, John Amatt, a mountain climber and CEO, uses the metaphor of adventure - climbing Mount Everest - to articulate a strategy addressing the challenge in a fast changing world.

To succeed in the 21st century, we must learn to be risk-takers; to become comfortable with uncertainty and to become visionary and adventurous in dealing with the new social, political and economic environments in which we will be forced to live.

Straight to the Top and Beyond is a fascinating and inspiring account of the author's climb to the peak of Mount Everest; it is also an inspiring call to businessmen and women to become adventurers; to seek out difficulty and to stretch their potential.

Born in Manchester, England, John Amatt lives in Alberta, Canada and is President and CEO of One Step Beyond World Wide. Founded in 1983, One Step Beyond grew of his desire to apply the lessons he learned climbing Mount Everest to corporate and professional life. Since that time, his company has grown into an international educational and motivational organization, training individuals and organizations to create new attitudes and strategies to survive in the next century.
