Has All The Right [Experience/Experiences]

He has all the right [experience/experiences], so he should make an excellent manager.


I'm not sure if one of them is right or both of them are acceptable. If both of them are grammatical, could you tell me the difference in meaning between them?

Natural English here is to use experience as an uncountable noun. He has all the right [ experience /experiences] , so he should make an excellent manager. experience as a countable noun usually focuses on an event, ie something that happens.
