Luis Benitez

Luis is one of the more experienced, respected and busiest professional guides and leadership development consultants in the world. He has summited the top of the famed "Seven Summits" 32 times, including being a six-time summiteer of Mt. Everest while serving as the Director of Operations for Adventure Consultants, a New Zealand based international guiding company. Luis’s first summit of Everest was to climb with the blind athlete Erik Weihenmayer on his historic 2001 Everest summit. He works to tie the lessons available from the mountains and carry them back to the everyday challenges of life and business. In this regard, he also manages and leads critical thinking/situational leadership seminars in Chile for the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business. This has led to the creation of an innovative consulting group - Endeavor Consulting - which focuses on experiential leadership development at the executive level. via Outdoor Recreation Industry
