Talks And Workshops
Guided Success For Teams

At NewZeal Teams, our Talks & Workshops combine storytelling with hands-on action, providing practical takeaways that fuel growth in the workplace and in life. Whether it’s a dynamic keynote talk, a half-day dive into team dynamics, or an immersive multi-day experience, these sessions invite teams to see challenge as something to embrace rather than to fear.

Each talk or workshop is led by Paul Nicholson, our founder and director. With over 30 years of guiding people through the wild and their own breakthroughs, Paul brings deep experience and serious heart to every room.

His Adventure Philosophy is simple. Life is unpredictable. So is adventure. Both are better met with courage, clarity and a willingness to lean into the unknown.

Our flexible offerings range from 60-minute inspirational talks to full-day Adventure Philosophy workshops. We can host a session at our serene River’s Edge property or bring or bring the experience to your office, conference centre, or chosen location.

Talk & Workshop Formats

Paul offers three dynamic formats that invite your teams to engage with the themes of his Adventure Philosophy at the level that works best for them. These are a 60 or 90 minute motivational keynote talk, a half-day and a full-day workshop. They can be held anywhere in New Zealand and will be fully customised to your needs.

About The 60 or 90 Minute Keynote

This is a shorter, high-energy session that gives your team a taste of Paul’s signature Adventure Philosophy, finishing with an optional challenge that’s equal parts memorable and empowering.

 

Paul’s sessions are upbeat and real. They boost a team’s collaborative and action-planning skills, landing insight that lasts. It’s an impactful approach that prioritises practical outcomes your team can take back to work and beyond.

About Half Day Workshops

Half-day sessions allow time to explore Paul’s Adventure Philosophy in more depth. They get to the heart of participants’ unexplored intentions, with plenty of space for real reflection and hands-on action.

Designed for teams and leaders serious about shifting gears, the workshop format is interactive. Expect a session that’s relevant, immersive and provides tools and takeaways that drive change.​​​

About Full Day Workshops

Full-day workshops take a deep dive into Paul’s distinctive experiential learning approach. Communal and inclusive, they enable participants to show up more fully as themselves.  

Teams are encouraged to lean into honest conversations, explore fresh perspectives and build the confidence to lead with more authenticity.

Paul will work with you in advance of the session to create workshop outcomes specific to your organisation and team dynamics.
