The Biggest Mistakes Leaders Make: A Higher Altitude Perspective
Why do some leaders perform while others flounder even when applying the same methods?
Seeking that answer led Don Schmincke and a research team to a unique laboratory: the death zone, that altitude above 26,000 feet where lack of oxygen threatens long-term survival. There, climbing teams resemble corporations. Both live passionately while confronting tough challenges. And when put to the test, climbing teams react like organizations: sometimes heroically, other times self-destructively.
Expecting to find new leadership principles that separate great leaders from the not so great, the team found something else entirely. It found high altitude leaders: Leaders that produce peak performance in the face of extreme challenges walk a different path. Rather than apply newly discovered principals, they succeed instead by avoiding the mistakes caused by specific dangers.

Presented By
 Don Schmincke
Founder
The SAGA Leadership Institute
Don Schmincke, a graduate of MIT and Johns Hopkins University, began his career as a scientist and engineer. He then became fascinated with how people organize and perform in groups, and even more intrigued by the high failure rate of management consulting and leadership theories that try to help organizations perform better.
In 1990, Schmincke founded The SAGA Leadership Institute (www.sagaleadership.com) to offer corporate training programs and help CEOs accelerate business performance in the areas of strategy, leadership, sales, and cultural alignment. He is the author of the bestselling book, The Code of the Executive, which has been featured in The Wall Street Journal and USA Today, among other publications. He has appeared on CNN, in addition to hundreds of radio and television programs worldwide. Often referred to as the renegade scientist, Schmincke is a top speaker for the world’s largest CEO member organization and flies 200,000 miles annually, keynote speaking at conferences, training CEOs in his workshops, and working with clients in every industry from the Department of Defense to large and small corporations including the manufacturing/distribution, information/ communications, and finance/insurance sectors.
