  • Scaling Everest: Powerful Insights on the Journey to the Top
    2025/06/02
    How should climbers prepare financially for the significant costs of climbing Everest?

    Steven Pivnik, an ambitious mountaineer currently on an expedition with Alpenglow Expeditions, is striving to summit Mount Everest, aiming to join the elite "8000 meter club." Having conquered Kilimanjaro and faced the challenges of Denali, Pivnik brings a wealth of experience to his Everest endeavor, underscoring the importance of meticulous preparation and acclimatization, facilitated by tools like hypoxico tents. His perspective on the ascent highlights the dual priorities of safety and summit success, favoring the north side of Everest for its relative safety from avalanches and rockfall. With a focus on returning alive and reaching at least 8,000 meters, Pivnik's journey is a testament to the lessons learned from past expeditions, where physical readiness and the role of failure contribute to eventual success.

    Key Takeaways
    • Proper acclimatization to high altitudes is crucial for climbers to prevent oxygen deprivation.
    • Hypoxico tents are innovative tools that mimic high-altitude conditions to help climbers build red blood cells.
    • The south route through Nepal to climb Mount Everest is risky due to obstacles like the Kumbu Icefall and Hillary Step.
    • Monitoring pulse ox, fitness levels, and health indicators is crucial for safety and predicting summit success.
    • Planning and timing the summit attempt on Everest involves starting the ascent in the dark to avoid bad weather.
    • Physical preparation, including legwork, core strength, and endurance, is essential for climbing high mountains like Denali.
    More from Steven Pivnik Steven Pivnik is a tenacious and dynamic entrepreneur, bestselling author, and in-demand keynote speaker whose journey from Eastern European immigrant to successful tech founder and endurance athlete has inspired countless others. As the former CEO and co-founder of Binary Tree, he scaled the IT company to over 200 employees across twelve countries, landing multimillion-dollar licensing deals with IBM and Microsoft before orchestrating a successful acquisition by Quest Software. Under his leadership, Binary Tree was named to the Inc. 500 and Inc. 5000 lists of fastest-growing companies for seven consecutive years—thanks in part to its thriving culture of low turnover and high client satisfaction.

    Away from the boardroom, Steven is equally relentless. He has competed in over a dozen full-distance IRONMAN® triathlons—including the prestigious World Championship in Kona—along with ultra-marathons and high-altitude mountaineering adventures, summiting peaks like Kilimanjaro and Aconcagua. His book Built to Finish weaves together lessons from endurance sports and entrepreneurship, revealing how grit, stamina, and vision fuel long-term success. Whether advising founders, motivating audiences, or tackling unfinished business on Denali, Steven brings an unmatched blend of energy, insight, and lived experience to every challenge he takes on.

  • What Stage of Your Business Growth Do You Need a COO?
    2025/05/26
    How can CEOs prevent political strife and foster a cohesive work environment? Cameron Herold, widely known as the CEO Whisperer, highlights the critical importance of the COO role through his establishment of the COO Alliance, a global network empowering second-in-commands across numerous countries. Drawing from his experience in scaling companies like 1-800-GOT-JUNK, Cameron articulates how COOs are pivotal in steering organizational growth and operational excellence. He advocates for the strategic insight and decision-making autonomy that COOs must possess, emphasizing the need for clear distinctions between C-level roles and other managerial positions to ensure fair compensation and effective leadership. As an author and speaker, Herold stresses the COOs' essential role in transforming visionary ideas into sustainable success, a perspective that underscores the value of strategic leadership in navigating the complexities of organizational growth. Key Takeaways The COO role requires strategic insight, P&L responsibility, and the ability to manage functional areas of the business.Distinguishing between the COO and other operational roles like VP of Operations is crucial to emphasize participation in the strategic process.Core values play a critical role in shaping organizational culture, and CEOs need to embody these values to create a cohesive work environment.Investing in leadership development and continuous training for managers is essential for sustainable growth of organizations.Addressing underperforming employees is crucial to maintaining a strong organizational culture and encouraging accountability among team members.CEOs need to be aware of natural transitions a company goes through to effectively scale up employees and maintain growth. More from Cameron Herold Cameron Herold is a lifelong entrepreneur who was raised to think differently. Growing up in a small town in Northern Canada, Cameron struggled in traditional school due to severe ADD, but his father—an entrepreneur himself—recognized his potential and taught him to reject the idea of a job in favor of building businesses that create opportunity for others. By 18, Cameron had launched 14 small ventures, and by 20, he was running a house-painting franchise with a dozen employees. His twenties and early thirties were spent scaling companies and coaching more than 120 entrepreneurs, including Kimbal Musk, Elon Musk’s brother. But his breakout role came when he joined 1-800-GOT-JUNK? as COO, where over six years, he helped grow the company from $2 million to $106 million in revenue, expanding it to four countries and 330 cities—all while cultivating a world-class culture. Today, Cameron is the founder of the COO Alliance, the first-ever peer network dedicated to second-in-command leaders. Inspired by his own experiences in the trenches of hypergrowth and his belief that every visionary CEO needs a powerful operational partner, Cameron created the Alliance to equip COOs with the tools, community, and mentorship they often lack. Known for his hands-on leadership, sharp operational mind, and deep passion for entrepreneurship, Cameron continues to help companies scale and thrive—just as his father once helped him do.
