Mate, grow up, playing with LEGO isn't a job… Below is pretty much a chat I had with someone about LEGO® Serious Play® the other day when I told them what I did for work, here's how it went So what do you do? take LEGO to companies and play? No 😁 I facilitate sessions using LEGO® Serious Play® as a tool to enhance communication, creativity, and collaboration among teams and people. Isn't LEGO just for kids? No. LSP is used by adults in lot of professional settings, proving it's a valuable tool for really engaging workshops and meetings Does anyone actually take this stuff seriously? So many companies use LSP regularly, and its value is being more and widely recognized across industries. So, you get there and just make models all day long? No, LSP involves much more. It's about using the models as a way to abstract the thinking on the topic  to facilitate deeper understanding, communication, and problem-solving. How does it work? You make models then what? There's a bit more to it than that -  its a structured process that includes: CHALLENGE: Question or challenge to build to, BUILD: You build it using the LEGO SHARE: Share the meaning of your model, focusing on using metaphors REFLECT: Reflect on what you've built and its meaning in the context So what do you build? Anything and Everything, and you can build in different ways for different reasons/outcomes, from individual builds to shared or system builds, each serving unique purposes. Like what would you use it for? LSP can be used for meetings, workshops, team building, 1 to 1 conversations, problem solving, facilitation, planning, testing out potential scenarios, innovation, and much more. It is a versatile communication tool. What if you're not the creative type? You don’t need to be the creative type to participate. It's not a LEGO building competition but a method to unlock new ways of thinking. Does LEGO know you're doing this? Yes, LEGO® Serious Play® has been open source since 2010, and I operate within the community guidelines. Do you work for LEGO? No, I do not work for LEGO sadly, but I am a facilitator of the LSP method. Do you think you will be doing a lot of it? Yeah, I have been for the last 9 months, and it really works well with the other work I do, with the Agility / Continuous Improvement Consulting  and 1 to 1 coaching. It's a brilliant addition to the tools and approaches I can offer to clients. Sounds like it's just for creative companies? Not at all. It’s about the mindset, not the industry. I've delivered workshops in tech, education, banking, startup accelerators, hospitality, health tech, global food companies, recruitment, creative agencies, financial services, and more. If you, or anyone in your network, is interested in learning more about LSP and how it can be used or its benefits, drop me a DM. Let's talk bricks! 😎
