>>> a workshop on risk-taking for the executive team in an organization

My Inner Uber Cybic trembles at the thought of taking on such a project. Any 'team' with sufficiently low time stress to attend a seminar is by definition not about to take the slightest risk. Risk-taking is borne of desperation. In addition, executives do not retain 'execution' privilege past the point of their first failure . .implicit in the risk concept.

Cycling implications? If executive's advancement** were contingent on the risks associated with cycling, they'd contract it off-shore.

** - The only significant metric you're dealing with here and the only one you can use to keep them awake.
