Follow on Google News | Jim Davidson Keynotes NOCOM 2018Legendary mountaineer and Northern Colorado resident speaks on resilience and innovation in the manufacturing industry
By: H2 Manufacturing Davidson will speak about the theme of this year's event: Creating Culture to Promote Innovation: "In my keynote, I share the epic tale of how I had to find a way to climb an overhanging ice wall alone to escape a deep glacial crevasse. I was short on resources, technique and time. Yet, I was able to overcome this challenge, just like manufacturers tackle challenges every day." Hear invigorating stories and lessons that help businesses employ innovation and resilience when facing challenges and opportunities. Short on resources, time, and technique? Resolve problematic challenges through adaptation and innovative thinking. "As an advocate of both manufacturing and climbing, I've learned leadership is most vital in your darkest hours, not your finest moments, and Jim is a great example of this," said Adam Papillion, director of operations for H2 Manufacturing Solutions. "Through many years of climbing and friendship with Jim, nothing has transferred more to my professional life than Jim's lessons on resilience." Davidson will be on site after his talk at the show's registration table signing copies of his New York Times best-selling book, The Ledge. As time permits, he will connect with individuals and organizations on the challenges they face in a competitive manufacturing world, and how they can solve them through resilience and innovation. Jim has summited the world's tallest peaks, survived harrowing trials and extremely dangerous situations, and he shares the power of resilience to audiences around the world. Davison's stories of survival help people face their own challenges and opportunities. With 36 years of adventures to draw from, he distills unique content for each audience to reveal how to adapt to profound change, overcome anxiety and uncertainty, and reach lofty goals.

About Northern Colorado Manufacturing Partnership The NoCo Manufacturing Partnership was formed in 2013 as a result of Governor Hickenlooper's state Economic Development plan called the Colorado Blue Print. Regions within the state were encouraged to form sector partnerships to provide more localized grass roots support to augment state efforts in each sector.These would be industry specific, led by business, in partnership with economic development, education and workforce development. A collaboration arose as part of the Blue Print process involving people from each of these affiliations and the NoCo Manufacturing Partnership was born. End
