Now we dare to aim high at Tax Center Middelfart
Written by Helle Middelhede Lykke, Tax Center Middelfart
We had invited mountaineer Mogens Jensen to give us a lecture in May 2008.
As a workplace we had been through 2½ years of merger, changing work methods, several internal repositionings, lots of new colleagues, and to top it all, big cuts in budget.
We wanted to learn from Mogens how we could dare to aim high to reach new hights. To make us aware of how big an influence we have in our perception of our jobs and our colleagues.
While, also wanted to hear about all the incredible adventures and experiences Mogens has had in his life so far.
We were very excited, and we were not disappointed.
What met us from the word go was an amazing energy bundle with a tremendous joy of life. Mogens' liveliness and presence is second to none. When experiencing Mogens in his lecture, you are automatically forced to take your own life into consideration. To evaluate whether you can raise the bar even higher and pursue those goals.
It may not be necessary to set the bar at climbing Mount Everest, however but I can find my own Everests in life. It brings joy to big goals and milestones on the journey. We can put many bars in private life, at work and socially. It is a very present activity to find and set the bar. It is feasible. Go on, try it.
Mogens' lecture is very varied between concentration, exercises, laughs and fascination of what goals a human being can set and achieve.
We give Mogens our warmest recommendations. Thank you for a great lecture.

What a story. What an adventure. What a challenge of body and mind.
And what an ability to both being able to tell about the journey to the world's highest peak, so the small hairs on the neck are stretched by pure and simple empathy by everyone in the audience, and to tell and disseminate morals and key points with energy, humor, charm, knowledge, depth and effect, so that beyond any doubt everyone had something to take home- regardless of it being a flat field- or Sky Mountain.
Mogens, we lie flat on our bellies in admiration and we thank you for the enrichment you gave us that night. You contain a lot that is worth taking into consideration.
In September, 2008, Sparekassen i Skals has had the pleasure of experiencing Mogens Jensen, professional mountaineer, triathlete, peptalker, teacher etc, at a lecture for our representatives.
To hear what Mogens has to say can be strongly recommended to anyone.
Mogens doesn’t just know how to do things. He had also done it!!

Mogens is an amazing storyteller, who manages to tie us all to the incredible story about the, at first sight, almost impossible goal which turns out to be the ultimate success in the end.
Mogens spices the story with great professionalism which makes the entire experience even more credible.
Mogens manages to make everyone laugh, but also to take our breath away when we see the slideshow that beautifully ties the red thread throughout the lecture.
Finally, Mogens draws many relevant parallels from the story to the reality we face every day at work. A reflection that not only leaves you with the impression of a story very well told, but also that you obtain tools for use in your daily life at work.´

Too cool for words !!
You are captured by both the fantastic story and the passionate way it is presented. Mogens is also very skilled in drawing parallels to other situations and spheres. At the same time you are excited and humbled.
