Rebecca Stevens
Rebecca Steven is well known for being the first British woman to reach the summit of Mount Everest. Rebecca originally trained as a journalist and pursued that career for some ten years, becoming deputy editor of the Financial Times magazine Resident Abroad. In 1989, Rebecca accompanied an expedition attempting the Northeast Ridge of Mount Everest. Exploring the question "why do climbers climb?", she climbed to the first camp at 7,100m and made a decision she wanted to climb the mountain herself.
In 1993, almost exactly 40 years after the first ascent by Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay, Rebecca achieved that ambition, becoming the first British woman to stand on the summit in the process. In 1994, she became the third woman – and the first British woman – the climb the ‘Seven Summits’.
“Mount Everest is a huge part of my life - a vibrant chapter in my memory but also in the work that I do as leadership coach and lecturer. On Everest, I gained unexpected insights into the human condition that reach far beyond the mountains. Everest stripped away any superficialities, revealing only that which matters: head, heart, and values – and honestly I don’t think there is any greater teacher of leadership and of working together with other people.” said Rebecca .
Rebecca’s keynote is about setting sights, taking initiative, overcoming fears and sheer tenacity and grit. And it's about recognising one's limitations and working collectively with other people - about leadership and teamwork. Rebecca's story is a powerful metaphor for our lives and our careers.

My dream job is to be a fashion designer, because I think it is fun and it is also a way to express the creative side of you. As well as of that I want to be a fashion designer because I want to create beautiful clothes for everyone. I am used to watching fashion programs on TV. At that time, I wish I could design clothes to show on the programs. The skills I would need are communication skills, be good at drawing, be able to work under pressure and be imaginative.
