"Climbing the Sales Mountain:
What B2B sales can learn from mountaineering."

Sales is a journey—one filled with challenges, unexpected obstacles, and moments where you wonder, Why am I doing this again?

Just like mountaineering, success in B2B sales isn’t about brute force or luck—it’s about preparation, mindset, and persistence.

In this dynamic and inspiring keynote, we explore the surprising parallels between scaling mountains and navigating the tough sales environment. From the importance of preparation and persistence to the role of attitude and learning from setbacks, this session will give you tools to tackle your own sales mountain with confidence.

Expect engaging real-world stories, practical insights, and a fresh perspective on sales—plus a few laughs along the way. No actual climbing required (unless you really want to) 🤣.

What You’ll Take Away:
✅ The power of preparation—why the best sales professionals plan like mountaineers
✅ How to develop the “T-shaped” competence that makes you a trusted advisor, not just a seller
✅ Why mindset and mental resilience are the oxygen that fuels top performers
✅ How teamwork and trust are the ropes that keep you (and your deals) from falling
✅ The importance of celebrating wins and recharging before the next summit

Whether you’re a seasoned sales professional or just starting your climb, this keynote will challenge and inspire you to rethink your approach and push for new heights.

Because in both sales and mountaineering, reaching the summit is never an accident—it’s a result of preparation, persistence, and the right mindset.

"Sales is like mountain climbing: the goal is clear, but the journey requires planning, perseverance, and the right tools. Challenges are part of the path, but the right mindset and team work help you reach the summit. Every step brings you closer to success! Excellent key note for our international group of sales people!"

Tommi Kässi, VP Sales, Posti Group

"Kim's own experiences in overcoming hardship and adversity, in setting overwhelming goals and reaching them, are useful to the sales team in increasing motivation and team spirit. Ask Kim to speak, be inspired and ignite your troops!"

Juha Herrainsilta, Sales Director, FENNIA

"Teamwork in extreme circumstances"

How important is mindset in teamwork? How does your mindset shape your own and your team’s behavior? Where does trust come from, and why is it so difficult to ask for help? What drives motivation and commitment? And when setbacks inevitably occur, how should we handle them?

A company and an expedition have more in common than you might think. In both, a well-functioning team is essential—built on trust, respect, shared goals, and the right mindset.

Join me for an engaging keynote (available in English, Finnish, or Swedish), where I’ll share insights on team spirit, trust-building, and the power of a positive attitude—all brought to life with captivating stories and photos from mountaineering expeditions and the workplace.

After the presentation, you’ll find:
✅ Fewer people who believe that attitude and perseverance don’t matter.
✅ More who understand that together, we are stronger—and that each person’s strengths contribute to shared success.
✅ Many who realize that achieving dreams, individually or as a team, takes courage, but is rewarding and possible—one step at a time.

Setbacks are part of the journey. Overcoming them requires resilience, courage, and a growth mindset. Success isn’t about taking reckless risks—it’s about determination and persistence. Ultimately, the biggest obstacles exist only in our minds.
