About David Lim

Led first successful Singapore Mount Everest Expedition
Overcame paralysis to resume mountaineering career
Leadership expert translating climbing principles to business success
David Lim is a mountaineer and leadership expert who led the first successful Singapore Mt Everest Expedition in 1998, transforming his experiences into practical insights for organizational success and personal resilience.

As founder of Everest Motivation Team, Inc., David has guided over 70 mountain ascents worldwide. His remarkable comeback from Guillain-Barre Syndrome, which left him paralyzed, to resume climbing demonstrates his extraordinary determination. David serves as an adjunct lecturer at INSEAD Business School and has authored bestselling books including "Mountain to Climb" and "How Leaders Lead."

David helps organizations navigate complex challenges by translating mountaineering principles into business strategies. His approach combines crisis management techniques developed in extreme environments with team cohesion methods that foster resilience during organizational change. His leadership framework emphasizes adaptability and decisive action when facing uncertainty—skills particularly valuable in today's volatile business landscape.

Audiences gain practical tools for building high-performing teams under pressure, strategies for personal resilience during setbacks, and actionable frameworks for decision-making in ambiguous situations. David's presentations blend compelling adventure narratives with applicable business insights.
