Chris Jewell is a world-class cave explorer and rescue specialist whose underwater expertise helped save 12 boys and their coach during the internationally followed 2018 Tham Luang cave rescue in Thailand.
As a key member of the British Cave Rescue Council, Chris has mapped uncharted cave systems across the UK, Spain, and Mexico, including establishing the Huautla system as the deepest in the Western Hemisphere. His 12 years of exploratory caving have positioned him at the forefront of underground discovery.
Chris helps organizations understand how lessons from extreme environments apply to business challenges. His firsthand experience managing life-or-death decisions illuminates practical approaches to risk assessment, team coordination under pressure, and maintaining clear communication when conventional solutions fail. His insights are particularly valuable for companies navigating uncertainty or implementing crisis management protocols.
Audiences leave Chris's presentations with concrete strategies for building resilient teams capable of adapting to changing circumstances, practical frameworks for decision-making when information is limited, and renewed perspective on what constitutes "impossible" in their own professional challenges.
Book Chris when your organization needs inspiration grounded in authentic adventure and practical lessons from someone who has literally navigated the unknown.
