General Session: Extreme Teamwork
Robyn Benincasa

 

Two-time world champion Eco-Challenge Adventure Racer and San Diego Firefighter, Robyn knows all about creating human synergy or as she puts it, "that magic that allows groups of ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things together." For the past 15 years, she and her teammates have studied Extreme Teamwork in the most unique and compelling classrooms on earth: the jungles of Borneo, the Himalayan peaks of Tibet, the rivers of Fiji, the rainforest of Ecuador, and the epic brush fires of Southern California. Her dynamic presentation will include ways individuals and groups can come together to deal with adversity and work in ways that increase the odds of winning. Robyn inspires people to grab life with one hand, grab their teammates with the other, and create that special magic that allows each of us to become better and stronger than we ever would have been alone.
