Więcej o książce

“Too damned fast. We’re falling too damn fast. No choice now. We will stop. And I will die.” Thus begins the wild and wonderful journey that is Make Others Greater. After his near-death experience at Pico de Orizaba, a climb that claimed the life of his best friend, Gary Guller made a decision to keep climbing. His decision was not without cost; to pursue climbing again meant the amputation of his left arm. In the years to follow, Gary would negotiate with armed Maoist rebels, stand atop several of the world’s highest peaks, complete an Ironman competition, and compete in the Marathon de Sables—the world’s toughest footrace. He would also lead the largest group of persons with disabilities to ever reach base camp. Gary would later become the first person with one arm to Summit Mt. Everest, the highest mountain in the world. From Sir Ernest Shackleton to Circuit City, from IBM to Caravaggio, Make Others Greater combines Gary’s incredible stories with those of leaders and businesses around the world and throughout time to deliver a commanding and inspirational message of resilience and empowerment. Survival alone doesn’t define us. It’s what we learn from the experience that does. We all climb our own Everest. Make Others Greater illuminates the path onward and upward.
