Eli De Friend replied to the topic Introducing LSP at a conference – to make it relevant in the forum Serious Play Pro Forum 7 years, 11 months ago
Hi Rob,
I think many of us on here have had your challenge. Naïvely, I used to think that I could use a facet of the conference’s theme while uniting the group through the one thing that links the participants, the conference itself. So in your case, I would in the past develop a 2-hour roadmap about how should the organising committee of the…[Read more]

Hi everyone! I’m just completing my LSP training as I type and I have the opportunity to do an LSP session for 2hrs at two difference conferences. Both focus on organizational change management. Where I have a bit of a gap is, how do I introduce the content to deliver value to the attendees that contribute to the discourse of the conference, where…[Read more]

Hi Sophie,
By the moment I don’t use music in workshops. But I’m tempted. I’m sure soon or later I will try that with some Henry Mancini’s songs for films. I think they have the potential to fit with the perfect mood required by some kind of questions. I found many pieces great to create a playfulness ambience: A Profound Gass, Baby Elephant…[Read more] -

LEGO SERIOUS PLAY Starter Kit comes with a brochure called “Imaginopedia for Skills Building“, that supports the start of skills building and may be also used for other purposes during LSP process.
One community member just sent me a question – does anybody know whether this document is available in Spanish? Other languages?

My 2 cents, depending on excercise, mood and group:
Earned it – The Weeknd
Take it back – Ed Sheeran
Still young – The Cat Empire
Brighter than gold – The Cat Empire
Happiness – Jonathan Jeremiah
Street spirit – Radiohead
Try and make sense – MOAT
The Walker – Fitz and the Tantrums
Can’t hold us – Macklemore & Ryan Lewis
Move on up – Curtis…[Read more] -

I have a public Spotify playlist if you’re interested. https://open.spotify.com/user/123895693/playlist/5Gs4talVveRL1dZWWK1Fk1
It’s all instrumental, high energy, good beats. Have a listen. It may not be right for everyone but i like it.

Hi, thanks for your advices. I have just one more question for Guy:
What is Mike Bowler’s Moose? We didn’t use it during our training sessions. Can it be made by bricks from Teaser bags? Would you be so kind to share the instructions?
Is there any model with building instrucions that can be build from Teaser bags (for the Metaphors c…[Read more] -

Hi Sophie,
For the construction skill building I use “Trashin’ the Camp” by Phil Collins/’N Sync from the Tarzan soundtrack. It’s fun, energetic and short
For the individual metaphor build, I use Al Di Meola’s version of “Theme from the Mothership”. It’s reasonably fast-paced, while still remaining quite controlled and serene.
For a shortish…[Read more] -

Hi Sofie,
A couple of suggestions:
1) Limit the number of bricks for the tower building. give them the bottom and the top and tell them to choose only ten more. This will focus the building and might help to focus the stories too.
2) Give specific instructions (for example “tells us what you have built and what it says about you”) and stick to…[Read more] -

Hi Sofie,
I always ask the participants what them would like to hear.
At some point in time, them are the “owners” of the activity…. :)

Hi!
I would recommend to give as much as 2 minutes per participant during warm up.
In my perception, the power of the methodology arises on the exercices after the warm up, not during it…..
Have fun,

Hi there,
when doing the skills building (the tower, de metaphor exercises with building instruction and exercise on story making) with a group bigger than 5 persons, I sometimes get stuck with timing. It demands time to let everyone share their stories and allow reflection time. Doing the 3 exercises (of which I think they are a must to get in…[Read more] -

Hi Hugues,
I just found your note, im basically on the same subject.
What about some ideas i found netsurfing the web:
1) building a duck with 7 pieces
2) removing 3-4 pieces and explaining why it is still a duck
3) build a tower
4) build your ideal neighbor with the mini figure and 5 additional pieces
5) build the same day, 3 hours earlier
