LEGO Serious Play Bespoke Workshop

Are you a courageous leader with some complex and challenging issues to address? Are you looking to take a different approach to solving these issues which is innovative, insightful and fully inclusive?

If so, LEGO Serious Play (LSP) could help you to move towards your goal.

LSP is a facilitated meeting, communication and problem-solving methodology that uses LEGO bricks to engage participants in creative thinking, reflection and dialogue.

Course Overview

LEGO® Serious Play® is a globally recognised method used in leadership, team development, coaching and innovation. It helps people think differently—using their hands to unlock ideas and insights they might not reach through traditional discussion.

In this introduction, you’ll experience LEGO® Serious Play® for yourself, learn the science behind the method, and leave with the skills to begin using it in your own workshops or team sessions.

These workshops are always bespoke and designed to help you solve a challenge or find new ways of achieving your goals. Because of the nature of LSP, these workshops can only be held in the classroom and requires a minimum of six people to run effectively.

Why take this course?

  • Discover how LEGO® can unlock deep thinking and new perspectives
  • Learn the foundations of LSP and when to use it
  • Explore how to ask powerful questions that encourage creative responses
  • Practise facilitating using the method in a safe, supportive space
  • Gain inspiration to use LSP in leadership, coaching or team settings

Situations where LSP can be applied

This is a bespoke session, which is tailored to help you solve a challenge or support your goals. Our expert facilitator will create a workshop just for you.

 

Here are some common types of situations where LSP can be applied:

  • Strategic Planning and Visioning
    E.g. A company might use LSP to collaboratively build models representing the organisation’s future, enabling participants to express and align their individual visions of success.
  • Team Building and Collaboration
    E.g. Teams can engage in LSP exercises to build shared understanding, strengthen relationships, and develop better teamwork dynamics.
  • Problem Solving and Innovation
    E.g. A company facing a product development challenge might use LSP to ideate new concepts, explore diverse perspectives, and prototype innovative ideas using LEGO models.
  • Leadership Development
    E.g. LSP can help leaders explore different leadership styles or gain insights into the organization’s culture and challenges by visually representing these elements.
  • Change Management
    E.g. Employees might build models representing their concerns, hopes, or expectations regarding the change, allowing them to engage in a constructive dialogue.
  • Conflict Resolution
    E.g: Individuals can use LEGO bricks to represent their perspectives on a particular issue, fostering empathy and helping parties find common ground.
  • Organisational Culture and Values Alignment
    E.g. Participants may build models that represent their perceptions of company values, allowing for open discussion about how the company’s culture can be strengthened or changed.
  • Employee Engagement and Motivation
    E.g. Employees could engage in LSP to express their aspirations or suggest improvements, making them feel more invested in the organization’s success.
