Welcome to Ascend Telluride - a mountain destination experience built for leaders who refuse to settle for the status quo. Here, innovation isn’t a buzzword. It’s our playbook.
We gather the nation’s top corporate leaders in a setting as bold as the conversations we ignite.
The mountains demand adaptability, vision and resilience, and offer a deepening, strengthening and empowering experience - exactly the qualities today’s leaders need to thrive in a world defined by constant change.
About
WHERE LEADERS ARE TRANSFORMED
WHY THE MOUNTAINS?
In the mountains, leaders are reminded of both their limits - and their untapped potential.
Because here, leadership becomes visceral.
The thin air sharpens focus.
The landscape demands adaptability.
The vistas expand vision.

WHO
WE ARE
We are a coalition of strategists, facilitators, and mountain guides who believe great leaders must evolve—or be left behind. Our team blends leadership expertise with experiential learning design, ensuring every moment of the Summit is both intellectually rigorous and profoundly human.
JOIN US
Ascend Telluride was founded by the Teams behind Leadership Landing, The Murphy Family and Unveiled Events.
We believe great leadership is not a title but a practice.
Founded by Hal and Joanna Adler, Leadership Landing helps leaders awaken greatness within themselves and their organizations through Executive Coaching, Team Coaching, and a proprietary 360 Assessment. Their mindfulness-driven approach blends real-time peer feedback with deep reflection, guiding leaders to become more present, deliberate, and grounded — aligning intention with action and creating workplaces where people thrive. Over 17 years, Leadership Landing has grown into a team of vibrant, soulful, and deeply skilled executive coaches, each committed to empowering leaders to thrive.
This philosophy is echoed in the work of Unveiled Events, whose productions are meticulously designed to blend elegance, personalization, and joy. Their bespoke experiences — from corporate summits to intimate gatherings — have created unforgettable moments for Hollywood celebrities, family offices, global athletes, and world leaders. Each event is crafted to communicate a clear vision, leaving lasting impressions that connect people to purpose.
Together, this team bring forward a shared vision: leadership that is mindful yet bold, elegant yet grounded, and deeply human at its core. Whether through coaching executives to embody the Five Attributes of Great Leaders™ — self-awareness, bravery, kindness, innovation, and inspiration — or curating experiences that unite people around shared purpose, the mission is the same: to awaken leadership that transforms individuals, organizations, and communities.
