Global Wellness Summit peaks with Olympic keynote
Delegates at this year’s Global Wellness Summit in Tyrol, Austria last month were treated to a different format, wherein after a keynote address by Olympic ski champion Stephan Eberharter, all 500 attendees put on their parkas and headed to the ski lift, which took them to the summit of nearby Hahnenkamm Mountain.
Eberharter’s keynote focused on how to “think like a winner” by cultivating mental toughness, why the “fun factor” needs to be a key element in professional motivation, and why resilience and openness to change is the path to success.
Hahnenkamm is home to the most challenging downhill slope on the circuit, where Eberharter flew to one of the most impressive victories in skiing history: destroying the course record in 2004, with a perfect 80-mile-per-hour ride.
At the top of the mountain, delegates enjoyed a traditional Austrian lunch with a view across the misty Alps, and were also able to experience Alpine wellness first-hand.
Mountain biking, hiking, paragliding and Segway rides were all available, and guests had the opportunity to meet with and talk to Eberharter.
