LEGO Serious Play 1 Day 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.
During this one-day workshop you will experience the power of LSP through various exercises, and will spend time reflecting on how you could apply it to various challenges and opportunities in your organisation.
LEGO Serious Play is available for private group bookings only. 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. It's ideal for teams who want to work together to solve a specific problem or challenge.

Course Overview
What is LEGO Serious Play?
LEGO Serious Play (LSP) is a facilitated thinking, communication, and problem-solving technique for use with organisations, teams and individuals. It draws on extensive research from the fields of business, organisational development, psychology, and learning.
LSP taps into the human ability to imagine, to describe and to make sense of a situation at hand, to initiate change and improvement, and even to create something radically new. It is a great way to handle challenging situations, for teams who can be open-minded and willing to try a totally different approach for problem-solving.
Because of the nature of LSP, these workshops can only be held in the classroom. It's currently only available for private groups with a minimum of six people. It's ideal for teams who want to work together to solve a problem or challenge. Please get in touch with our team to learn more.

For Face-to-Face Live Online Learning
All learners will need to install Zoom on their machines. Full technical requirements are on the Zoom website. Your link will be included in your joining instructions once you have booked your place — if you haven't received this email then please contact our team.
You should reserve out 10am to 4.30pm in your diary for the learning. This will allow you to join the interactive workshops and have time to reflect and do the assignments in between. We believe immersing yourself in the content for a whole day will create deep learning and lasting impact.
Learners should log into the training session 10 minutes before the start time to ensure that they have downloaded and set up Zoom correctly. The course will start precisely on time and it may not be possible to go back over material missed by late arrivals.
Your active participation is expected: everyone will be heard and seen throughout, just as they would be if we were in a room together. To be heard, hear and seen you will need a microphone, speakers and camera — if you have a modern laptop that’s all you will need. Remember, you’ll need a quiet place to call from and a decent internet connection is a must.

When we fail to say no to a project, it could be dragging us away from focusing on our strengths. A workforce composed of individuals who're all working to their strengths is going to be motivated, energised and incredibly productive.
