Alex Honnold
Climber
Perhaps the most famous rock climber in the world, Alex has amazed and inspired audiences with stories of his ropeless, free solo climbs. The pinnacle of his career (and maybe the sport of climbing) was his 2017 climb of El Capitan in Yosemite which The New York Times called “one of the greatest athletic feats of any kind, ever”. This accomplishment was captured in the Academy Award winning film, Free Solo.
As a speaker, Alex reveals the strategies he employs to master his craft, for which the stakes could not be higher. He dives deeply into his meticulous preparation as well as his mental and emotional management to impart lessons that anyone, in any field, can benefit from. Alex's natural style of delivery, paired with world-class photography and film clips from his adventures around the world, makes for highly entertaining sessions.
Alex has given talks to a wide range of audiences from Fortune 50 companies to classrooms, and his 2018 TED Talk generated over half a million views in the first 24 hours alone.
