Hi Bruce,
While Jens has been closely attached to the LEGO SERIOUS PLAY community for about ten years now and both he and Katrin Elster, who is a co-organiser of Play4Agile, are certified LSP facilitators, there is no guarantee that everything that Jens and Katrin introduce to the Agile community under the brand name Strategic Play is necessarily…[Read more] -
Eli De Friend replied to the topic LSP Practitioners in Wales, UK? in the forum Serious Play Pro Forum 10 years ago
BTW, I’m not suggesting that you can’t or shouldn’t use LSP in an Agile project. Far from it. In fact, the more people using LSP, the merrier. My concern is related to branding and quality. How can an honest client with a certain budget ensure that his or her funds achieve the intended objectives, if there is no guarantee on what is being…[Read more]

Hi James,
You are not the first person to use Agile and LSP in the same breath. In April at a Project Management conference, I was talking with a guy who ran a one and a half hour session on LSP and Agile. What bothered me was that he had only seen “LSP” once, at another conference and instantly thought he could lecture on the subject. He…[Read more] -
Eli De Friend replied to the topic Global Companies using LSP? in the forum Serious Play Pro Forum 10 years ago
Dear Marcos,
I seem to remember 4 years ago, when we set up the community, there was some suggestion to use salesforce.com as a way to share business leads and leverage each other’s work. There were some fairly valid arguments against this, not least of which is the fact that many companies don’t want the world knowing that they have asked for…[Read more] -

Wishing you all a very productive couple of days in Billund. Sorry that Joyce and I couldn’t make it this time round – just a bit too busy on a variety of different professional and personal projects for once.
I just read a reply by Leif Kjaer Karlsen to my comment about protecting the core values, principles, etc. of LSP. What he says is very…[Read more]

A Potential Breach in LSP Core Values???
As a follow-on from the conversation with Gabriel, I thought I’d trawl the net for any reference to Swisscom and LSP. Apart from our own CAPRESE web site, and the Xing profile of our main client representative, I also saw a link to a page in German:…[Read more]

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]

Hi Alan,
Your gut feeling is no doubt the right one in this case.

Hi Alan,
I completely agree with Marko’s comments. I often tell the story of how I became so impressed with LSP. Our boss was exactly like your client: he wanted to make some changes and he thought he could use -

Dear All,
Even when the official Connections Kit is available, it’s always nice to supplement the material with other stuff. LEGO Education has some interesting material, e.g. 9686 Simple & Powered Machines Set -

Hi Alan, I did understand that your event was not a demonstration; what I was trying to convey, in a constructive manner, is that if you leave out shared builds, landscaping, connections, scenarios and simple

Dear Alan,
If you want to demonstrate the power of LSP and you are calling this a networking event, then perhaps you could ask participants to work in groups of 4 or 5 and build a shared vision of what the -

Hmmm. I’m not a Mar/Comm/PR consultant, so I would never profess to advise on specific criteria for that vertical segment. As a management consultant, I would be looking at:

I can’t think of a client, off the top of the hat, who has completely developed a brand using LSP. At the University of Lugano (or Università della Svizzera Italiana) LSP has been a used in the Masters -
