Featured Speaker: Dr. Rodrigo Jordan, Founder, Vertical, S.A.
Nominated by Time magazine in 1995 as “one of the 100 young leaders for the new millennium,” and leader of the first successful South American expedition to Mt Everest and K2, Dr. Rodrigo Jordan will share his philosophy on applying to business and education the leadership and team-building skills needed to climb the world’s most challenging mountains. Through videos and jaw-dropping photographs, he will bring his gripping leadership stories to life. He’ll examine the dynamics of building and leading high-performance teams that produce great social and economic results.
