Yossi Ghinsberg is a master storyteller with an epic story to share. Lost and alone in the midst of the Amazon rainforest for three weeks, he not only survived, he found new meaning for his life and work. The author of the international bestseller ‘Jungle’, now a major motion picture starring Daniel Radcliffe (“Harry Potter”), Yossi was recently rated as one of the top ten speakers in the business.
As a gifted storyteller, Yossi has developed a keynote topic designed to inspire and sow seeds of growth and positive transformation in the minds and hearts of corporate audiences. Each of Yossi’s messages are wrapped in riveting original stories of adventure and resilience. Yossi recounts his tales and life-learnings with transparent authenticity so that audiences feel as if they are right there with him.
Years of experience as a business keynote speaker have found Yossi before audiences of all sizes and from across a wide variety of industries.
He is just as comfortable speaking on stage in front of thousands of people as he is in a more intimate boardroom setting with a dozen executives. Over the years, Yossi has shared the stage with many of the world’s eminent public speakers, most memorably Wayne Dyer, Richard Branson and Bill Clinton.
The rapid rate of change and uncertainty businesses are facing in the new world of work can leave leaders and their teams feeling as though they are lost in the wilderness. Something Yossi Ghinsberg has experienced first-hand. After a tragic separation from his friends, Yossi found himself lost and alone for weeks in the heart of the Amazon with no food or weapons, amid the worst rainy season in decades. Through this inspiring story, Yossi takes his audiences on an emotional journey of inner strength, self-discovery, and transformation. Based on Yossi’s international bestseller, ‘Jungle’, now a major motion picture starring Daniel Radcliffe (“Harry Potter”) as Yossi, this multi-media keynote experience, featuring several heart-racing clips from the film, leaves audiences on the edge of their seats. You can hear a pin-drop in the room when Yossi takes the stage. But there is much more than sheer entrancement in his storytelling. Yossi translates his own lessons of survival – where every single moment left him at the mercy of the jungle, and his ability to adapt quickly to the changing circumstances literally meant the difference between life and death – into principal and effective strategies that drive business excellence. In this unique presentation audiences will:
- Learn how to discern the difference between real survival and imaginary survival.
- Feel empowered to adapt to their circumstances. They learn that we are co-creators of our own realities, in life and in business.
- Explore how adversity is part of life; being a victim is a matter of choice.
- Learn how to move away from competition into a collaborative mindset, one that fosters innovation and transformation.
