On her first attempt on Mt Everest, Stacy did not summit. She describes the challenge: The worst storm in forty years trapped us in a snow cave at 23,500 feet for five days. Turning back can be the most important yet difficult decision of all, particularly when there is so much pressure to succeed. Stacy reflects, If you see yourself as trying to beat the mountain, eventually the mountain will win. You dont conquer mountains, you cooperate with them.
Stacy returned to Mt. Everest with the Northwest American Everest Expedition. On September 29, 1988, after twenty-nine days on the mountain, Stacy became the first American woman to reach the summit of Mt. Everest, the worlds highest mountain at 29,028 feet. Stacy then went on to lead a successful K2 expedition, the worlds second highest mountain, one of the most difficult peaks on Earth to climb.
Stacys experiences extend well beyond the mountains. She also owns and operates Stacy Allison General Contracting. She and her team of builders specialize in high end restoration. Stacy steadfastly preserves the charm and integrity of classic old homes while achieving financial success.
In the spirit of giving back to her community, Stacy Chairs the American Lung Association of Oregons largest fundraiser, Reach the Summit.
Stacys first book, Beyond The Limits: A Womans Triumph on Everest, is a suspenseful, triumphant adventure story. Her second , Many Mountains to Climb; Reflections on Competence, Courage and Commitment is an exciting anecdotal account of climbing challenges practically applied to help you plot your way more surely to professional and personal success.
Stacys mission is to motivate people to move beyond limitations and reach for their dreams. She challenges her audiences to lay the foundation for risk taking by accepting full responsibility for their lives. She also emphasizes the importance of recognizing and valuing everyones contribution as a team member in lifes pursuits.
Mountains, though seemingly a planet apart from the world of business, are a rich source of practical insights for executives, managers and individuals alike. They are high-altitude laboratories for leadership, team dynamics, risk-taking, vision, and change management. Stacy combines her mountain experience with her business knowledge to create keynotes that consistently hit the mark to inspire and provide tremendous take home value.
