Hi Sebastian, thanks for sharing. It’s very helpful!:)

Hello Ariel,

This is an answer to your 2nd question. Only if the other methods are for ice-breaking, reactivating or relaxing after hours working, thinking, building, sharing, etc., then I might recommend it. Be careful not to take the group out of flow!

To your first question…

For an industrial process, you will have probably a mixture of…[Read more]

Hi Phek,

Mathematically it should be in the 10s or hundreds of thousands of combinations or permutations or possibly even more..
In reality in my experience if I ask 50 people to build ducks.. about 3 to 4 would be similar though not exactly so.

However all 50 are building a duck according to how their hands and minds sees a duck.

If you…[Read more]

Thanks a lot Patricia and Elrika for the helpful info:)

Hi Phek, the most recognisable ducks I have seen was 21. Best wishes!

Hi Phek, could this article help? http://www.math.ku.dk/~eilers/lego.html#whywrong

Hi Beth! I am still looking and I’d love to chat!

Hi Julie,

Are you still looking for a facilitator? I am a certified facilitator and I am in the Orlando area. I would be happy to chat if you are interested.

A related article, not about LSP though: HOW LEGO CAN HELP BLIND PEOPLE EXPERIENCE THE WORLD: http://nerdist.com/how-lego-can-help-blind-people-experience-the-world/. Perhaps some more inspiration for you.

Have a great workshop Safak!

Can you please email me with your contact information elaina.gillule@bms.com

you’ve done great with this person. Please let us know how it works out. As the other colleagues said, they are more prepared than we are. And I think that it really helps us, as facilitators, to understand better the power of metaphore and story-telling……………… maybe, because I myself am so bad at building, that I always trust the other…[Read more]

hello Elaina:
I have facilitated LSP workshops for over 6000 people since 2000, including large groups of top leadership and pharma companies. “Think With Your Hands” — http://www.thinkwithyourhands.com?lbd — is my typical 3-hour workshop in a setting like you describe. I am based in Nashville, and about the same flight distance as Gabriel.

Please…[Read more]

Hello Elaina,

I work out of Montreal (Quebec, Canada), less than 1:30 flight away from Pennsylvania. I am a certified LSP facilitator and would be most happy to help you. I’ve designed a few leadership LSP workshops, mostly for teams of executives.

If you’d like, we can chat via skype to discuss your requirements and see if there is anyway I can…[Read more]

Dear Patricia, Tamara and Bruce,
You are amazing! I don’t know you, but i love you.

Thank you very much for your insights and advices.
This morning, I had the chance to connect with the participant, and had a short talk about handling of LEGO bricks, as well as storytelling/metaphor. He is very cooperative, and very curious how things will…[Read more]

Safak,

I had this happen once. The person had a basic, unmoveable, prosthetic hand, which I only realised after I had distributed the fiddle packs. I asked him if he wanted help, with me guiding him, or something. He said no, he’d manage on his own with one working hand, and the prosthetic to hold things in place.

So, my suggestion is this: ask…[Read more]

A great challenge Safak! I find myself thinking of ways to use the handicap as an opportunity to be creative with the builds and build empathy with other participants. For example, how about a round where everyone has to build their model with only one hand?
We also did a great pair activity at the North American LSP facilitator’s meeting last…[Read more]
