In times of rapid change markets go through massive transition and in the process even the giants shake - some collapse. As fear and insecurity rise, times like these feel like sheer survival for many. Not many living people know that survival is a choice as deeply and intimately as Yossi Ghinsberg. Having been lost for three weeks in the depths of the uncharted Amazon, in the midst of a raging rainy season, without companionship, food, weapon or fire, he survived against all odds. The most important thing he learned from this experience was that we all have the power to survive. Yossi Ghinsberg teaches that survival is a choice…one that comes with results that may not look as we had originally expected or planned. After his rescue Yossi returned to the Amazon, to the very same valley in which he was lost; he made it his home for nearly three years. With the help of the local native people he founded The Madidi National Park, the biggest biodiversity conserve in the Amazon. Yossi’s choice to connect rather than retreat has become his life’s journey. He is the CEO of an Israeli / Arab Reconciliation Festival where spiritual leaders of both Islam and Judaism conduct special prayers for peace. A documentary of his survival was created by The Discovery Channel, the success of which has now led to a soon to be released feature film. His delivery is a powerful multi sensory experience, evoking emotions and challenging commonly held concepts. Yossi believes that nothing promotes growth more than an unexpected experience and unconventional thinking. In these times of great challenge and change, Yossi’s Power to Survive message is timely.
