- Jungle Survival Skills: Adapting to Change During Uncertain Times
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 - Sailing the Seas of Change
“It is not the strongest of the species that survives nor the most intelligent, but the one most adaptable to change”. This famous adage by Charles Darwin reminds us that change is the only constant.As inherent and inevitable as change is, it is still perceived by many individuals and organizations as a problem. A master storyteller, Yossi’s keynote on change is not a lecture but a journey. - The Laws of the Jungle Jaguars Don't Need Self-help Books
The only species that separates and alienates itself from nature is our own. Isolated in that seclusion we either try to dominate nature or protect ourselves from it. Yossi asks his audience to expand their horizon and see "the big picture". Our life has become "in a box" and we've forgotten that it is our birth right to be and feel part of our planet and the entire universe we live in. - The Power to Survive
After a tragic separation from his friends, one man is lost alone for weeks in the heart of the Amazon with no food or weapons in the midst of the worst rainy season in decades. Through this amazing experience Yossi Ghinsberg penetrates a new level of understanding of life and himself. A master storyteller, Yossi takes his audiences on an emotional experience of inner strength and self-discovery.
