Speaker- Jamling Tenzing Norgay
On 11th December, KNUTS.in partnered with a leading pharma company to facilitate a session where VoV Jamling Tenzing Norgay discussed the importance of taking thoughtful risks and going beyond our comfort zone.
Jamling Tenzing Norgay is an Indian-Nepali Sherpa mountaineer, mountain guide, author and motivational speaker. In 1953, Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay made history as the first men to conquer Mount Everest’s summit. Following in his father’s footsteps, Norgay achieved his own ascent of Everest in 1996, captivating audiences as the star of the breathtaking IMAX documentary, ‘Everest.’
Jamling, a dynamic motivational speaker, draws inspiration from his father’s historic 1953 climb and his own 1996 Everest expedition, as well as the Sherpa culture, to teach crucial lessons. He runs his adventure travel company, Tenzing Norgay Adventures, and now personally guides Treks and Trekking peaks in Sikkim, Bhutan and Nepal. Jamling’s book, ‘Touching My Father’s Soul,’ was released in 2001 and has been translated into 18 languages. His book has reached the 24 spot on the New York Times Bestsellers list, and No. 15 in Germany.
He has received His Holiness The Dalai Lama’s Award, as well as the National Citizen’s Award from the President of India. In 2002, Norgay and Peter Hillary, the son of Edmund Hillary, were part of an expedition to climb Everest and commemorate the 50th anniversary of the first ascent.
