What is LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®?

LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® is a methodology that was created by LEGO® Group. The method was designed to solve complex problems in the business sector but also to involve every member of the group to the discussion despite peoples personalities and their status in the companies. The approach is based on research that hands on learning produces a deeper more meaningful understanding of the problem.

Where is it used?

History

SERIOUS PLAY® concept was created in 1996 by Professors Johan Roos and Bart Victor when they both were professors at IMD in Switzerland. It was used as a way for managers to describe, create and, challenge their views on their business. Articles about their early ideas were published in 1998 “In Search for Original Strategies: How About Some Serious Play?” and in 1999 “Towards Model of Strategy Making as Serious Play”. Long-Range Planning journal published in 2004 article “Playing Seriously with Strategy” (which was co-written with Matt Statler), that serves as the foundation for the concept and practice of LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®.
