Deep Survival

Corporations of medium to large size in Colorado and beyond are discovering value in the powerful collaborative between Laurence Gonzales, lifetime researcher on the common characteristics of survivors in the wilderness as well as on Wall Street, and Apex Mountain School’s Center for Organizational Development and Corporate Team Building.

Few windows in history have presented such potential for corporations to target and secure such enormous gains in market share. Time Warner, HP and Apple have captured new market share by opening product lines, diversifying outreach and expanding marketing efforts, as well as reinventing operation methodology and reducing inefficiencies. At the core of these successes is one common characteristic; leaders that meet risk directly, manage it, and move.

Laurence Gonzales’s bestselling non-fiction books and fictional books and story lines have become favorites to the likes of The New York Times, NPR, The Associated Press, and Freakonomics, to name a few. As a contributing editor for National Geographic Adventure Magazine, he is the recipient of many notable awards, including the Distinguished Service Award from the Society of Professional Journalists. Laurence has spent a lifetime studying the art of survival. He lectures to businesses the world over on the topic, as well as what it takes for corporations to survive, and thrive, in a current market economy.

Apex’s guides and facilitators survive and manage risk with every outing. We’ve climbed with our clients to the highest summits on the planet, like summiting Mount Everest with the only blind climber to ever stand atop its summit. As well, Apex’s Center for Organizational Development and Corporate Team Building has facilitated some of the nation’s greatest corporations reaching to higher summits through a greater awareness of their limitations, as well as their unimagined capacities.

Deep Survival programs may be designed as anywhere from 1/2 day events to 7 day conferences, and may include:

  • Pre-conference/event efforts, such as corporate analyses, behavioral model analyses and definition of outcomes.
  • On-site services, including strategy sessions, speaking engagements and themed team building events.
  • Post-event exercises, such as results evaluation and corrective strategies.
