    Andreas Peter started the forum topic Lego Serious Play in Switzerland? in the group Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Fans 12 years, 8 months ago

    Dear all,

    We plan to conduct a Lego Serious Play workshop in September here in Switzerland. Since we have more participants than anticipated – and since LEGO currently seems to be unable to deliver new kits –

      Hi Andreas, We do have quite a lot of inventory, which we tend to reuse, because most of our work is currently in the public/academic/non-profit sector. We have enough material for around 100 participants, but we don’t have 4 brand new boxes. Depending on the nature of your workshope and client, it may or may not be viable to rent the material…[Read more]

        Hi Eli, Thank you very much for your message. The boxes do not need to be brand new or even in particularly good shape. We conduct the workshop with 20 students as part of one of Master classes. We already did engage an external facilitator to conduct this first 1-day workshop, but he currently does not possess enough material for 20 participants,…[Read more]

    Hi, I have the same issue. I have a Landscape/identity kit which I find to not be enough for large workshops. I tend to buy Duplos and and pieces from other sets where available. For animals I find using plastic

    Thanks for this Omar! This is more food for thought and I like the approach a lot! Going to see what I can do with it.

    Hi everyone.
    I’m looking for some help.
    I want to buy the Lego serious play sets. I’m from Mexico and my girlfriend will be traveling to NY, she can bring me the sets.
    Does anybody know if she can buy the sets in a Lego store?
    I’m having trouble finding how to order the sets by internet. Any help?
    I appreciate your time.

    Hi there

    Finally I received LSP starter kits and one identity kit. Unfortunately the only material provided with the package was the 15 page imaginopedia leaflet whic provides basics information about the LSP.

      Hi AbuAnas,
      No, you are not msising anything in the shipment from LEGO. And to be honest there really isn’t anything available that would be useful for you without first having gone through the training. Doing LSP might seem easy, because building with LEGO bricks are, but the fact are that all the value comes from how to first design the…[Read more]

        Hi Robert,

        Thank you for your feedback. I am planning to attend the course offered by you. I was referring to the course in Holland but when I looked to the Calendar it is now in Madrid.

        You mentioned some material is available would you be kind enough and tell me where can I obtain this material?

          Hi AbuAnas,
          The session in Holland got moved to a week later beginning of October – fyi!
          The background materials that you can begin to read I have in mind I can email to you, if you let me know which address to use.
          Nothing of it though will enable you to design and facilitate before the training.

      You can also find more about it in “The Next Best Practise” by Lissack and Roos, and in the facilitator manuals ;-)
      If you google some of the old white paper from the Imagination Lab, then you should also be able to find some of their findings.
