NO REWARD WITHOUT RISK
Reward-seeking is an evolutionary success strategy. So is its counterpoint: loss avoidance. When opportunity knocks and both strategies come into play, which should take the driver’s seat?
This 90-minute immersive and dynamic workshop is designed to help you:
• Understand how the interplay of reward-seeking and loss-avoidance shapes motivation
• Explore strategies to inspire courage and resilience in teams facing high-stakes decisions in uncertain times.
Built around a simplified Hero’s Journey framework, the emphasis is on practical applications. You’ll leave the workshop equipped with tools to enable you to navigate the challenges of risk-taking and setbacks in pursuit of growth, both for yourself and in team situations.
Join us on Friday, 31st of October, from 9:15 am to 11:00 am at the Manifold Coworking Space in New Plymouth.
Light nibbles will be provided. Please let us know in advance if you have any cultural or dietary requirements, so we can accommodate everyone.

About Facilitator
Dan Thurston Crow is a seasoned entrepreneur with a passion for unlocking human potential. With startup ventures in NZ, China and the US behind him, he brings a broad range of business management skills to his training, coaching and facilitation engagements.
Alongside his work supporting the local innovation ecosystem through Doso – Taranaki’s learning studio for entrepreneurs – Dan's focus has been the development of an organisational development program, The Engagement Blueprint, designed to cultivate genuine engagement in a fast-changing world.
The program is built on the belief that individuals who wish to bring out the best in themselves and those around them must master three essentials:
• motivation, to understand the hidden drivers that shape behaviour;
• application, to turn insight into tangible, real-world impact; and
• perception, sharpening the internal lens that influences every choice.
Dan’s expertise lies in bringing these elements to life through experiential learning, helping organisations galvanise their teams and cultivate a culture of lasting engagement.
