Get smooth and powerful with Walt

Skiing: Carving, Moguls, Trees | Business: Smart Strategic Thinking and Tactical Execution

Combine the two things you love and always want to get better at.

Skiing and business.  Two things you love and want to get better at every day.  One of my philosophies is this: “We only have a finite number of days on this earch, and I hate wasting them.”   Let me join you or you and your team for an emmersive ski and deep business thinking experiance.

My goal is to make you a better, smoother, more powerful in control skiier: a strong edging carver on the groomers, and/or a confident navigator of mogul fields, and/or the guy who skis next to and in the trees where the light is better and the snow is pure.   – Confident, in control and safe.

My other goal is to make you a sharper thinker, we will share models and philosophies and we will talk deeply about strategy, culture, structure, operations and business finance.
