What happens when you take a step outside of your comfort zone?
Science says it stimulates the part of the brain that tackles creativity and problem solutions. And that is useful, not only for the individual, but also for the company in which she works. That sort of work culture, in which you are encouraged to challenge yourself. Because adventure is a state of mind.
That is the reason behind SD Worx sponsorship initiative Sponsor the Spark, where ten employees are trying out an activity of their choosing. An activity they have never done before. Something of a dream and yet a challenge.
The Microadventure Edition
To guide and inspire our brave adventurers on their journeys we have the British National Geographic Adventurer of the Year, Alastair Humphrey to aid us. Alastair has been on daring expeditions around the globe, and today he is an appreciated author, speaker and the founder of Microadventurers.
Microadventures is a way of making adventures accessible to all people. Meaning that an adventure doesn’t have to be skiing down a mountain or living in a cabin in Patagonia. You can still step outside your comfort zone and take on an exciting challenge by doing something smaller.

And here are the results!
