Why Climbing Works for Teams
Climbing is a powerful metaphor for teamwork, leadership, and trust. As teams move through a vertical challenge together, they face real moments of vulnerability, communication, and shared success. Climbing together creates shared memories, builds emotional intelligence, and encourages each participant to lean into discomfort, ask for help, and celebrate progress.
