Leadership Expeditions Guide

Fernando has a BS in Agriculture Science from the University of Chile. Being a full-time entrepreneur, Fernando runs his own Consulting Business, dedicated to all things in the Agribusiness industry. His current project is running an Olive Oil farm his team started from scratch. The project has become a full-time operation of a 3000-acre farm with more than 200 employees working during the peak season. Its most recent milestone was its first harvest during the 2014 season and the first big sale of its oil production.

Since a teenager Fernando has been involved in outdoor activities, pursuing mountaineering and climbing since his college years. With more than 10 years working alongside Vertical as a guide and facilitator in leadership expeditions, he now takes time off work to join the annual round of Wharton Leadership Expeditions. He enjoys these opportunities to exchange experiences and to share how the outdoors helps to develop leadership skills that the business world no doubt needs.
