Background

About Dhiren Talpade

Introduced to adventure and wilderness since childhood, being in the great outdoors comes as second nature to me. My love for outdoors made me give up my practice as a criminal defense lawyer at Mumbai High Court and I joined Magic Bus Centre for Learning & Development, Mumbai. It is here that I discovered the power of the outdoors as a medium to deliver high impact learning & development programs to persons of various age groups and backgrounds. I am an excellent designer of objective & need based programs, having delivered them to the likes of corporate leaders, entrepreneurs, NGOs, teachers and youth. I have designed and delivered programs with themes ranging from self-discovery, individual excellence, team building, communication skills and leadership to social skills, physical skills and survival skills. Some of the clients that have benefited from these programs are BNP Paribas, BMW Foundation, CiviCRM, Eaton Technologies Pvt Ltd, Goldman Sachs, Indo German Chamber of Commerce, Sterlite Technologies Limited amongst many more. I am a High & Low Ropes Course Instructor and rescuer and I am certified by the European Ropes Course Association. I also hold a Wilderness First Responder and an Adult & Child CPR and Airway Management certification from the Wilderness Medicine Institute, NOLS, USA. I have over nineteen years of experience with outdoor adventure setups and instruction. I am also a professional illustrator & a storyboard artist for the media industry in Mumbai. I am an avid traveler and I seek new adventures perennially.
