Team leadership at altitude with Tania Noakes

For mountain guide Tania Noakes, leadership isn’t about giving commands, but is about collaborating.

Tania is an adventurer and climber who works with teams to help them tackle some of nature’s biggest challenges. As a group guide, Tania has had to be something of a chameleon, adapting herself to what the team dynamic needs to reach their goal safely.

Takeaways from Dan and Pia
