In many industries, the rapid rate of change employees are facing during the global pandemic can leave people feeling as though they are lost in the wilderness. Something Yossi Ghinsberg has experienced firsthand. After a tragic separation from his friends, Yossi was lost alone for weeks in the heart of the Amazon with no food or defenses, in the midst of one of the worst rainy season for decades. Yossi translates his own lessons of survival – where every single moment left him at the mercy of the jungle, and his ability to adapt fast to the changing circumstances literally meant the difference between life and death – into effective strategies for those experiencing change in the work environment. This keynote presentation is based on the international bestseller 'Jungle', now also a documentary produced by the Discovery Channel and a feature film directed by Greg McLean and starring Daniel Radcliffe. From this unique presentation audiences will…
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 and following our business survival instincts will often lead to success
Learn how facing our fears and looking for innovative ways to embrace change, can lead us towards our desired outcomes
Passionate and positively charged with contagious optimism and original ideas, this latest keynote from Yossi Ghinsberg recounts a story of the tremendous power to create a new reality and change the world. The WEvolution Revolution is the story of Yossi’s amazing adventure of building “Chalalan,” an eco-tourism resort in the heart of the Bolivian Amazon. It inspires organizations and attendees to keep looking forward, adapt to timely ideas, adopt new values and take risks. Attendees leave this talk with the power to create a new reality and change the world.

"It is not the strongest of the species that survives or the most intelligent, but the one most adaptable to change," Charles Darwin once wrote. A real-life example of this tenet, speaker Yossi Ghinsberg offers a keynote that delivers a journey, not just a lecture. He takes his audiences away from their everyday realities, offering them a different perspective on what change really is - and how to use it. Accepting change as a natural phenomenon is the basis of sanity; knowing how to flow with the change is the greatest of virtues. This is the most basic and relevant wisdom that can help us better manage our work and our lives. Ghinsberg explains how surrendering to the power of change doesn't mean one is helpless or powerless. Individuals and organizations will always be faced with change. His insights help everyone see change in a positive way - not as an obstacle to be overcome, but an opportunity to be grasped.
