More About Jeff Salz . . .
Dr.
Jeff Salz—cultural anthropologist, explorer, and journalist—has
made a life out of adventure. He has traversed most of the
remaining blank spots on the map, living with the Turkestani
Khazaks of Central Asia, riding with the Gauchos of Argentina
and nomads of Mongolia, and searching for Shangri-La among
the lost valleys of the Himalayas. For three months, he
led the Chinese army on a merry chase while traveling in
disguise with the Khampa nomads of Tibet. Traveling the
Andes on horseback, skis, and foot, he traversed the Southern
Patagonian Ice Cap, scaled its unclimbed summits, and followed
in the footsteps of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.
He has explored lost cities along the Amazon. And, sailing
in a traditional reed boat, he became the first person to
sail around Lago Titicaca, the sacred lake of the ancient
Incas and the world's highest navigable waterway.
Jeff
has successfully translated his lifetime of explorations
into motivational presentations. As one of the nation's
foremost authorities on bringing the spirit of adventure
into daily life, he is founder and president of Salz &
Associates, a management consulting organization dedicated
to innovative approaches to personal and organizational
change. A partial list of his clients includes Aetna, Motorola,
GTE, Pacific Bell, Hewlett Packard, and The Walt Disney
Company.
He
takes his audiences on a lively exploration of the adventure
perspective as a strategy for increasing effectiveness on
the job and in daily life. Sharing thought-provoking insights
gained from his worldwide expeditions, he skillfully guides
audience members through the uncertainties of a changing
world, inspiring them to chart their own course, achieve
their goals and turn each day into a “peak experience.”
His humorous style and profound sense of humanity make each
presentation a memorable event, and audiences come away
with a new sense of enthusiasm for their lives and careers.
Combining breathtaking photography and epic storytelling,
Jeff has wrapped 30 years of expedition leadership and exploration
into keynote experiences that will move your people not
only to tears and laughter, but also to action!
