This video is only a small taste of my placement experience during my semester at Tallinn University. I had the opportunity to work with Marko Rillo, one of the pioneers of Lego Serious Play methodology. I hope the adult educators find this of help and give more ideas into their facilitation and creative processes.

As the picture above, I felt really puzzled at the beginning of my placement. The first reason was that this opportunity was the least expected since I thought to work directly with the Estonian community. Yet, this rare opportunity took me away from my comfort zone and made me explore new possibilities. Lego® Serious Play® was something completely new for me and I was in shock when using it to build a project as a cellphone app, but at the same time how to build team work.

I honestly I could never imagine that playing with legos would make me see things different or that we could run a work meeting! While exploring this method and understand how it would be developed into a cellphone app, I realized the different contexts and situation LSP can work for.

My fear went away, when I became more playful and use this method in my life, making decisions, or clearing up my mind, inspiration for writing, just to mention a few. The more you play the more you find endless and creative possibilities! My process of placement was full of generation of creative ideas, a lot of playing, discovering more possibilities, and this video is just one of the applications of this method I wanted to share with you.
