Beth Davis replied to the topic Duplo or No Duplo, that is the Question … in the forum Serious Play Pro Forum 6 years, 6 months ago
Absolutely include the Duplo elements! You will notice that they are included in the LSP kits. People like variety. Also, I have never had a participant actually use a cow, let’s say, to represent a cow. The use of these elements does not, in my experience, take away from the metaphorical representations in the models.

Scott Simmerman, Ph.D. CPF, CPT replied to the topic Stop-Motion Videos in a session in the forum Serious Play Pro Forum 6 years, 6 months ago
I got StopMotion for my iPhone and there are others in the App store.
In a conversation Thursday with a high-tech colleague in Mumbai, he popped me two other alternatives (one not apparently available in the US). So there ARE a variety of apps out there that require no additional hardware. And my son-in-law has one on his Android and it was said…[Read more]

Marko has made outstanding contributions to the organizational and personal development of tens of thousands of people, many directly but also many who have benefited from his “transfer of training” and his expertise and teachings. And his views on this question are most certainly appreciated.
Over the past 30 years, that concept of…[Read more]

Hi Rick, what a great way of remembering who Onno was and what he loved to do!
He will be greatly missed in the LEGO SERIOUS PLAY community in the Netherlands.Thanks for sharing this (intimate) story!

Hi All,
This is a subject that I take dearly to heart. Some of us in the LSP community were practising years before we finally got certified and I am sure that there will always be a percentage of professionals who discover the methodology and start using it successfully long before they decide to attend a formal training session.I remember a…[Read more]

Scott – I havent asked the participants to do stop-motion videos, but I have done these myself using camera’s stop motion function. Gopro is the easiest option. See one here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KF6Nm5hixKY

Marko Rillo replied to the topic Non-certified facilitators in the forum Serious Play Pro Forum 6 years, 6 months ago
I am also offering certified training courses, but admit that the word “certification” on this market is misleading. Criteria for certification is just survival for 2-4 days at the training. The reason I offer certificates is that many people coming from corporate setting suggest that they need this as the evidence of attendance.
There is no…[Read more]

Rick. What a sad loss and what a kind and thoughtful way of remembering Onno. He was such a lovely chap. Very engaged and active LSP practitioner. Thank you for sharing this.

Our friend, and LSP facilitator Onno Kruitwagen died last month. Last week i led a remembrance ceremony at the LEF future center, where we both facilitated..
Although I use LSP, it was Onno who was really captivated by the method, like no other facilitator I knew.
This is when I decided to use Lego in the remembrance ceremony.
What we did is…[Read more]

Rick Lindeman replied to the topic Non-certified facilitators in the forum Serious Play Pro Forum 6 years, 6 months ago
I agree with scott and alan.. the focus on certification is in that sense weird, since lego decided to make it open source… I am a certified facilitator (cps) from the IAF and written quite a bit on this method.. so i regard myself as a lego facilitator (as well as a facilitator with many other tools), without being certified by one of the…[Read more]

Hi Jaime,
I would start at the beginning: What is the exact goal of the day? Why should these people of different companies build a team? Do they have a goal in the future together or is it just about the fun?
All the best,

Please allow me to suggest two alternatives, both complete team building games with powerpoint intro and play and debriefing packaged up into a bundle and one that uses LEGO scenes as communications tools. And, these are designed to be easily integrated with other content, using LEGO and LSP or not. Both are anchored in metaphor and both focus on…[Read more]

one additional tip: you can create a shared vision of the team in a short future (2 to 4 years).

Hi Jaime,
How much time in total do you have?
Have you thought that the warm-up in sort way can be considered as the beginning of a team building exercise? :)
Have fun,

Hi Marcos,
Here are several suggestions:
1. Focus on topics such as trust, cooperation, decision making, and risks / benefits.
2. How would the optimal team work well together?
3. Build a model of what the team currently looks like (feels about “teamness”), then move to what is should look like.Best of luck,
–Michael
