Serious Play Pro Forum 11 years, 6 months agoJon,
Indeed – as Joyce has said: all these questions are thoroughly dealt with at LSP facilitator training sessions. However, if you are interested in this subject in more detail then I would suggest you to read Per’s and Robert’s book. In chapter 4 they talk about the method in detail, incl references to documentation. Also on pp. 138-140 there…[Read more]

Serious Play Pro Forum 11 years, 6 months agoThanks for the reply Joyce. I of course plan to attend an LSP training workshop, but there doesn’t appear to be anything on the calendar I can get to for at least a year. Meanwhile, I am hoping to use the goodwill of this forum to expand my knowledge.

Serious Play Pro Forum 11 years, 6 months agoHi Jon, “where” and “what” did you learn about LEGO Serious Play (LSP)?
I know people from the Agile community who think that getting out a bag of LEGO bricks is an LSP workshop. I know people in top-ranked business schools who think the same thing (I work with one of them). But it isn’t.
The process is extremely powerful when applied…[Read more]

Serious Play Pro Forum 11 years, 6 months agoNext question :-)
How do people document the outcomes of a LSP facilitation? Photos and labels? Flipcharts? Notes? Video? How do you present your findings and outcomes to the commissioners of the workshop?

Thanks for sharing – sounds like great fun. Would be interesting to find out more.
You might have seen this, but there was a recent post about the connections of the Lego Serious Play and design thinking on this community site. Namely – a reference to a presentation of Arindam Basu:…[Read more]

Serious Play Pro Forum 11 years, 6 months agoJon,
Welcome to the Serious Play community! I agree with Joyce – at most LSP facilitator training sessions those questions are dealt with thoroughly.
Anyway – it depends on an actual session. In most cases I do one day of a simple session where we start off with Window Exploration Bags or Starter Kits. If it is a quick warmup then I let people…[Read more]

Marcos Cedillo replied to the topic Practical issues – storage, transport, presentation in the forum
Serious Play Pro Forum 11 years, 6 months agoHello Jon,
here my two cents on what works for me on my workshops.
– I keep separate the starter kits in order to supply one by participant on my next workshop. Eventhough I usually do that, I have had times when i decide to mix all of them and place them at the center of the table for self serve, that works too when you are short one or two kits…[Read more] -
Joyce Miller replied to the topic Practical issues – storage, transport, presentation in the forum
Serious Play Pro Forum 11 years, 6 months agoHi Jon, did you do a facilitator training on the use of LEGO Serious Play? These kinds of issues are normally well covered. If you haven’t done a recognized training, I would highly encourage this. You will get informed about practical issues as well as inspiration and insight for using the method and materials. All the best, Joyce

Maureen ennis replied to the topic Practical issues – storage, transport, presentation in the forum
Serious Play Pro Forum 11 years, 6 months agoHi John,
The most important sorting that I find, is to keep the Starter kit pieces separate from the landscape, connections and any other surplus. Getting people started well and without confusion is critical success factors as our LSP mentors knew well when designing the process.When I complete an engagement I take all of the leftover…[Read more]

Serious Play Pro Forum 11 years, 6 months agoHi All
I am just starting to experiment with Serious Play. I could do with some practical advice. Here are a load of questions:Do you mix all your sets together, or do you keep the Landscape and Identity kit separate from the Connections kit, or mix it all in together?
Likewise, do you keep your Starter kits separate?
Do you introduce the…[Read more] -

Marko Rillo started the topic LSP Kit at Amazon in the forum
Serious Play Pro Forum 11 years, 7 months agoWhat a surprise – I browsed through some materials and found out that you may purchase now some LSP kits also via Amazon. There is a LSP Starter Kit for sale via 3rd party reseller called “Pumatrix”. Just that the price is more or less double of the LEGO Shop: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GVDCVKW/?tag=seriousplay-20 – anybody have any experience with them?

According to my information from a former colleague, now employed at DSG Berlin, JK (during a WS Sept. 7th.) by using the LSP concept name represented a directly contradiction of all the LSP values, principles and etiquette. Including that the core steps of LSP were not followed and after woods by various participants named as a complete disaster.…[Read more]

Serious Play Forum 11 years, 8 months agoHello all, I am working my way to secure a large Telecom service provider. I saw in various presentations that Swisscom actually used LSP. Can anyone tell me for what application exactly and if at all possible which division of Swisscom?
Thank you-
Hi Gabriel,
Swisscom used LSP in a strategic programme to move from technology driven product development to human centric customer experience design.
Orange Communications used LSP for strategy and branding in the very early days of research through The Imagination Lab.
I also believe that some work was done with British Telecom around 2009,…[Read more]

Eli,
thank you very much, this is very helpful. It turns out that the Canadian company I am referring to will be speaking to Swisscom on another matter and just might bring up the topic of LSP.
Thx again
Gabriel-
The department in question is Swisscom Residential Brand Experience. However, I believe the leadership team from that time has now moved on.
-
Great, thx Eli

-
BTW where did you see a presentation about Swisscom and LSP? I’m not aware of anything on seriousplaypro
-
A presentation on LSP had a slide with a list of companies that used the method… Swisscom figured as one of them.
-
But you don’t remember where you saw this presentation? I’m just curious. Obviously, if it was the CAPRESE web site, that would make sense – I’m more interested if other people / organisations refer to it. It enhances one’s credibility if third parties reference one’s work.
-
Eli, the presentation is in the knowledge base that we have access to, and it’s entitled LSP_Case_Example.pdf
-
I’m curious. Where do you access this knowledge base? I’m supposed to be a moderator of this site and I wasn’t aware that there was a knowledge base of PDFs
-
I suppose that this is one of the presentations prepared by Robert some years ago. Available e.g. here: http://www.flandersinshape.be/frontend/files/userfiles/files/LSP_Case_Example.pdf

yes it is… that’s the one!
