Update: We will be moving the community meeting into the spring. Hope to see many of you in 2012

Dear all
When some of us met at the LEGO Idea conference earlier this year, the idea of a real (as opposed to virtual) community meeting emerged.

We, Trivium, voluntered to host and drive this conference. Based on the input we got we will be working on a program. Sofar we have settled on some dates:

October 25-26; 2011

Location will be Copenhagen, Denmark

We expect to start with lucnh on the 25th and work untill late afternoon on the 26th. We will post more on the program as it evolves

We hope to see many of you

I will be offering this workshop as a “pre-conference” workshop to this years Pegasus Systems Thinking Conference in Boston (I will also do short workshop on conference). Here is what Pegasus write on their website (http://pegasus.prod.ifpeople.net/pre-post-conference/pre-conference-workshops):

Scenarios are carefully constructed stories about how the world around us might—not will, not should—unfold over the years ahead. Scenario thinking challenges our mindsets about what could possibly happen so that we are able to develop robust strategies in an unpredictable and uncertain context. This seemingly simple yet sophisticated tool has a solid track record in improving the quality of strategic conversations and outcomes both within organizational teams and in multi-stakeholder, cross-organizational groups. By integrating the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY™ method into the scenario construction process, we engage more than just our heads, but also our hearts and hands, enabling us to make our thinking more explicit, the stories we create more powerful, and our actions more effective.

In this workshop, you will:

• Be introduced to the hows and whys of scenario thinking
• Experience the unique LEGO SERIOUS PLAY method
• Discover the rigor and value of using the process to make scenario thinking clearer and more explicit, leading to better strategy
• Apply these tools to your own specific strategic challenges

During our LEGO SERIOUS PLAY training sessions at Billund with Per Kristiansen and Jacquie Lloyd Smith our group came to conclusion that it would be of utmost importance that we set up an impartial community website that connects certified SERIOUS PLAY facilitators.
After some initial exchanges of information the core of the website - SERIOUSPLAYpro.COM has been set up. Welcome!
