summitThe guests were Paul and Denise Fejtek, who shared their exciting story with you about their Seven Summits Quest, and what it takes to train, prepare, and select the right team to help you get to the top. In addition, they highlighted some of the exciting stories and lessons found in Paul’s recently released book “Steps to the Summit – Reaching the Top in Business and Life.” I’ve read the book myself, it’s powerful, entertaining, and full of valuable business insights you can put to use right away.

Less than 350 people in the world, and only a handful of married couples have ever climbed all of the Seven Summits – the highest mountain peaks on each of the seven continents. Paul & Denise Fejtek recently joined that elite group after reaching their seventh and final summit on May 23, 2010, the Earth’s highest – Mt. Everest. Their climbs were in support of the Challenged Athletes Foundation, who also named Paul as the Most Inspirational Athlete of the Year.

Paul has balanced his outdoor pursuits over the years while working full-time as a Managing Director at the Irvine-based investment bank Hunter Wise Financial Group. He specializes in mergers & acquisitions representing owners of privately held companies in the food & beverage, oil & gas, and medical device industries among others. He completed an $89 million all cash sale of a spinal implant company in which he managed the transaction in part by satellite phone from Antarctica and later at Mt. Everest Base Camp.
