About the Book

Based on the author's riveting story of his climb up Mount Everest, The Right Mountain is much more than an adventure story; it is about defining success for yourself-in business or in life. In the '80s, success meant money, power, and prestige; but today, success is personal and comes from what we believe as individuals - our core value. On Everest, teamwork, commitment, and self-awareness take stark new meaning in the face of adversity, and even death. Through this book, the mountain becomes a metaphor, teaching powerful lessons for business and personal life.

Under his leadership, the Hayhurst Group of Companies grew to become one of the top three advertising agencies in Canada. He was also Chairman of Outward Bound Canada. In 1987, he founded The Hayhurst Career Centre, an organization that helps people squeeze more satisfaction out of life.In 1988, he participated in the Everest expedition that would change his life. He put together a slide show of his journey, and soon came to realize that this was much more than a travel story. He began to compare his experiences on the mountain with the challenges we all face in daily life, and found that his Everest climb was a powerful metaphor for defining success. Gradually, a valuable message took shape. He called that message The Right Mountain. Today, Jim Hayhurst presents The Right Mountain speech and slide show to businesses and organizations around the world, helping to change the lives to others.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
