In Detail

Thomas has peak-performed in climbing, writing and keynote speaking for more than four decades. In 1983 he wrote climbing history at 21 years of age when he became the first to solo climb without ropes, the highest and hardest mountain faces in the Alps, most notably the notorious Eiger North Face, a feat unparalleled to this day. But mountains taught Thomas that life is permanent movement and that as soon as you think you’ve got it made you are going down. He never rested on his laurels and achieved unique solo ascents also in the Andes, in Alaska, Patagonia and the Himalayas. In the last two decades he has evolved into a team climber and achieved more than 30 first ascents in severe winter climbs; the latest in January of 2022!

WHAT he OFFERS YOU

Thomas shares with audiences around the world how they, too, can recover from permanent stress, how long-time high performance is possible without burning out and why occasional failing and above all measured rest are essential preconditions for the unfolding of our potential. He offers an in-depth look at simple techniques they can apply in their every-day lives to achieve great results over a long period of time - without burning out!
