On behalf of the Mastercard Nordics & Baltics team, I would like to thank Fredrik for his incredibly engaging motivational lecture. We engaged Fredrik during the COVID-19 outbreak, and although his world seemed different at first, he was able to connect the challenges of the highest mountains in the most extreme environments and the challenges of a pandemic crisis. Fredrik managed to relate his expeditions with the theme, which not only makes it useful for the organization but also for the individual. Fredrik's presentation technique and his lively stories absolutely piqued the interest and curiosity of the team and motivated everyone to think about how to better prepare and deal with the unknown. I can wholeheartedly recommend Fredrik.

Fredrik has achieved incredible feats in life, which helps him share his message of inspiration and motivation. Over the past 24 years, I have attended hundreds of events with speakers from around the world. Fredrik's message of resilience, risk-taking, overcoming self-limiting beliefs, combined with his storytelling on mountain expeditions and his love of nature, but above all his ability to connect with his audience placed him in the top ten speaker category for me. His journey, of facing his fears, thinking smaller and chasing his dreams, makes for lessons that will stay with you long after the talk is over. He really makes you feel like you can accomplish incredible, unattainable things in your life if you just put your best foot forward, stop putting yourself down, and start trusting yourself. What a treat from a humble yet extremely determined man. I look forward to inviting Fredrik again for my corporate audience, and I know you'd love to hear from him too!

The ascent of Kebnekaise was an incredible "boost" for the team. Thanks to Fredrik, we have arrived in both physical and mental top shape. Fredrik found a perfect level of challenge and when we managed to reach the top (and come down) we feel unstoppable! Nothing can stop us after we pass this, for us, extreme challenge! So I recommend all teams that want to develop to contact Fredrik Sträng to get help to climb "their" mountain. PS It was a privilege to spend time with Fredrik during these days. A wonderful personality that has an easy laugh and creates conviction and faith that you will achieve your goals and challenges!

I have worked with Fredrik many times. Both as a lecturer and organized by company conferences. Fredrik is inspiring and motivating and strengthens his message with exciting (personally experienced) stories from success, adversity, and rise and fall in one of the world's most dangerous environments. Top performance from the world's roof - with a great commitment to the environment and personal development.

Fredrik is an invaluable resource and is one of the absolute best moderators/conferences/lecturers I have employed. In a very short time, he absorbs information and acquires an overall picture of the assignment. What angle should his contribution have, what is important to the audience, what does the end customer want to convey, etc.. An enormously great intelligence together with very great special skills and intellectual personality make him a completely unbeatable supplier in this. As he also has a background as an entrepreneur, he is independent in the assignment and fast and flexible. I have had high expectations of Fredrik on every occasion and he has exceeded them every time. I am ALWAYS extremely confident in recommending and hiring Fredrik Sträng as a conferencer, deliverer or partner!

I have rarely come across such a genuine personality that stands out like Fredrik. His ability to stay positive, stay inspired and motivated even in the toughest places and situations in the world is exceptional and continues to amaze me. It has been a privilege to get to know him in the business world and as a friend in mentorship. In his talks and workshops, Fredrik's exceptional stories and life experience come across naturally, something you can easily relate to, regardless of background or work experience. No matter what your background, he makes sure to leave everyone with a smile on their face. As a speaker and leader, Fredrik deserves my highest recommendation.

When we decided that this year's conference would be to climb Kebnekaise together, Fredrik was an obvious person to hire to help, inspire, prepare and motivate the team for this challenge. In addition to leading us to the top, we also received an inspiring lecture and an unforgettable experience. Can really recommend Fredrik, both as a guide and lecturer.

We sat a large number of participants and summed up the day after your performance and were incredibly impressed and tagged, I also want you to share this positive! To be given the task of giving an inspiring and motivating speech in front of a group of people is not easy. Based on previous events, it is a very small part of the speakers who break through and get the whole audience with them - you succeeded in the very best way! A wonderfully well-formulated and very well-structured section of the conference gave a lot of energy and focus on creating a target image and tackling setbacks along the way. In relation to standing on an icy mountain, our everyday problems feel easily surmountable.

He always gets the highest marks from our participants!

I have had the opportunity to work with Fredrik with various companies and most recently with Woody Bygghandel. I have always been very satisfied with the delivery. To challenge and provoke in a way that makes large groups and individual employees stop, reflect and develop is an art that Fredrik masters. Adapting to the respective assignments, expectations but also to the dynamics and composition of the group is done in a brilliant way. My warmest recommendations for Fredrik.

Fredrik contributed strongly to two camp schools at Husbygårdsskolan in September 2017. He led exercises with the school's students in grades 4 and 7, in working together, learning about life and overcoming challenges through outdoor rock climbing and indoor wall climbing. Fredrik met the students in a very respectful and inspiring way. I was particularly impressed that Fredrik also mastered supporting and guiding young people in a low-key and humble way.

We hired Fredrik Sträng as a speaker, organizer of group training sessions and guiding on several occasions. Fredrik talks about the importance of setting clear goals, preparing well and working together as a team to succeed. He is a professional on stage and creates a wonderful connection with the audience, which not only inspires but also arouses many new and exciting thoughts. He is a really good speaker! The group training sessions with Fredrik have been both fun and hard and are a good way to strengthen the we-feeling within a company. I can warmly recommend Fredrik as an inspiration for your next conference/kick-off, for group training or if you need a guide on an adventure.

Lars Hallberg Omställningsfonden

Omställningsfonden, (Transition Fund) whose mission is to support and assist employees who have been dismissed by reason of redundancy, got the idea to climb Kebnekaise together with employees and consultants during summer of 2013. (The mountain has for long been a metaphor for the human and organizational growth.) For this reason, we searched for a source of inspiration and a lecturer who could help us to present the joint project for our people during a conference. Fredrik Sträng was exactly the right person for the task with his amazing climber experience, his contagious joy and his own special ability to inspire. It was a lecture that gave many meaningful thoughts and discussions – a meeting with deep feelings about the moment's seriousness mixed with a lot of humour and positive energy. Our very best recommendations to Fredrik, and we hope to see you again!

At Stratsys last user conference for our municipality customers in the public sector; I invited Fredrik as guest speaker. ... As a speaker, Fredrik could really inspire and plant thoughtful parallels with our participants’ problems and challenges, for instance in the implementation of change in their organizations. Fredrik then interweaved this into breathtaking stories of life and death, and with an ability that made us all feel as we were there with him on his way up the dangerous mountain peak of K2. In summary, it was a very interesting lecture! I can really recommend Fredrik Sträng as a speaker in most contexts. Fredrik is brilliant at adapting his address to the participants’ background and the message you want to convey.

Fredrik really captivated all of us in the audience with his stories of navigating in life-or-death situations, motivated us to harness our teamwork and leadership skills to take on our own real-life challenges and conquer our organization´s Everest. He reminded us about the importance of always having a positive attitude and to really make sure that everyone in the team has a clear view of the same goal. I have never had so many positive reactions to a guest speaker before, everyone was hugely impressed by Fredriks story and the passion that he showed telling it. Fredrik clearly revealed just how much of the real challenge that lies within conquering personal fears and having the courage to make the right judgments in exceptionally difficult circumstances. A true inspiration to all of us! Somehow he still managed to make the challenges we face in our jobs relevant on a personal level to his. Fredriks passionate personality and his message of the importance of strong teamwork, will stay with us for a very long time! I really want to give Fredrik the warmest recommendations!

At an all-day conference on November 21, 2019 for about 70 people, we had an hour-long inspirational lecture on the theme of goals and goal management with Fredrik, who offered us an inspiring journey with both seriousness and lots of laughter. Fredrik offers a lot of himself and gets the whole company involved in a natural and genuine way. Fredrik was also easy to get in touch with and communicate with before the event. Highly recommended!

Firstly, I want to tip my hat... or my cap to you! Everyone I've spoken to was sooooo inspired by your presentation, including myself! Thank you so much! It made a fantastic emotional impact just as we had hoped, and the content fit perfectly into our journey of change ahead. Some employees approached me immediately afterward and said, 'What Fredrik mentioned about everyone being important, even the ice melter, is so crucial; I want us to feel that way.' Perfect, the ice melter will have a central place in our change efforts.

Thanks Fredrik. The seminar you gave for my unit last week was really inspiring and gave a great deal of good advice that we can learn from and use in our daily work. Celebrating every milestones along the way, not only when you reach the final goal is one of them. How you can look at a challenge with completly different eyes depending on your attituted and how important it is to show commitment is another. For anyone reading this, I can gladly recommend Fredrik.
