Book Yossi Now

Author of international bestseller Jungle and the subject of Discovery Channel’s “Escape from the Amazon”, Yossi Ghinsberg is among the most compelling speakers of our generation. Yossi’s messages are inspirational and unique, based on a personal story that must be heard to be believed.

A riveting storyteller, Yossi relives his death-defying ordeal at the edge of human limits - the tragic separation from his three traveling companions and lost in the heart of the uncharted Amazon with no food or weapons, in the midst of the worst rainy season in decades. Sweeping audiences into the depths of that primordial jungle often described as one of the most dangerous and unpredictable landscapes on the planet, Yossi weaves a gripping first-hand tale of survival against all odds. Injecting humorous perspectives throughout, he places the listener at the heart of the moment to vicariously encounter the challenges of human survival.  Audience members use words like “spectacular”, “inspiring” and “breathtaking” – and are moved to ask themselves, “What would I do to survive?”

Yossi Ghinsberg is unique in his delivery; no two presentations are ever exactly the same. Each message that Yossi delivers is a message he lives by, filled with practical application and life-lessons:

  • It’s our unique strengths that ensure survival in the jungle of the business world
  • To overcome adversity and fear, learn the principles of flow rather than cling to the familiar
  • Build and conduct a healthy life and business through cooperation with your ‘ecosystems’

Audiences understand that change is a part of life - being a victim a matter of choice - and in all of us is the strength to deal with adversity in the most harrowing of times and the most common levels of everyday life.


Presentation Topics

  • The Power to Survive In the midst of the uncharted Amazon

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.  This young Israeli traveler is tested to the extreme through 20 harrowing days of sheer survival.  A riveting storyteller, Yossi Ghinsberg relives his ordeal, sweeping audiences into the depths of the primordial jungle.  They experience; What it takes to adapt to change, How to deal with adversity, The challenges of survival.

Yossi challenges audiences:  "The problem with life may be that it is not tough enough. It is the day to day mundane problems that grind us. When a moment of real struggle emerges, we naturally tap into our survival resources and find ourselves ready to fight.”

How do we rise to the challenge of living every day of our life as if it is our last?  How can we bring radiating intensity to our thoughts, words and actions?  Is adversity a part of life and being a victim a matter of choice?

Yossi's presentations allow audiences to answer these questions while keeping people on the edge of their seats wondering what's going to happen next.

  • Keynote:  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. 

Having lived in the Amazon rainforest for three years and now living in the Australian rainforest, Yossi knows how to bring the natural world to life…and how to relate it to an audience in a fascinating way.

The teaching of the 'Laws of the Jungle' to audiences has a tremendous and direct impact, bringing breakthroughs and transformations to both individuals and organizations.

This topic is highly entertaining due to Yossi’s ability to tell stories and create mind images with his audiences, and at the same time the material can only be described as life-changing.

The ‘Laws of the Jungle’ is a topic packed with content and can be delivered as a 60 to 90 minute keynote allowing time for interaction and Q and A. Alternatively it can be extended to a 3 hour breakout session.

NOTE:  This keynote is based on his recent book by the same name.
 

  • Keynote:  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.”  Charles Darwin
 
The famous adage says: “change is the only constant”.  As inherent and inevitable as change is, it is perceived by many individuals and organizations as a problem.
 
A master storyteller, Yossi’s keynote on change is not a lecture but a journey.  He takes audiences far away from their mundane reality and far above their judgmental minds, allowing access to new perspectives and reflections:

• Understanding and welcoming change
• Releasing past experiences
• Moving through change and adversity while maintaining responsibility and power

Yossi gives audiences an understanding and acceptance of change and the tools to incorporate this philosophy into their lives.

  • Seminar – The Manifestation of Vision Through The Eightfold Path of Action OR Penetrating the Realms of “The Secret”

The Eightfold Path of Action indicates that this course is about ‘doing’ rather than ‘thinking’ or ‘talking’ about it.

The principles are interdisciplinary, drawing content from business, psychology and yoga along with some esoteric teachings.

It is the first time that a seminar of this nature has been introduced into corporate environments.
