Thanks Ariane.
You’re correct – but I’m trying to build a game for SAFe, not for Scrum. My challenge is an Agile Release Train (ART), of 120 people, starting their common journey. 12 Scrum teams.
The goal is “beyond the ‘team building'”.
Any ideas?
I see that earlier you have asked about a game for 50 engineers…
Thanks

Hello, well I think this is more LEGO for Scrum than LEGO SERIOUS PLAY.

This might have the instruction set you were after?

Hi Priscilla, sounds like this company has a supply chain problem. If that is really the case, I doubt the solution to the crisis lies within the walls of the company. Therefore it may be useful to ask your client if one or more of their suppliers should participate in the workshop.

Also, I hope the company doesn’t just want to use the LSP method…[Read more]

Thanks Alejandro and Francine. It helps me a lot!! Excelent tips and ideas!! ;)

Hi Priscilla!
Good ideas also the ones suggested by Alejandro Cabral.
As professional advisor in innovation strategies, and now also certified LSP, I would recommend to focus on the customer’s profile, their needs and wants. From there, start rebuilding a vision to answer those needs that might have changed during the course of the past years…[Read more]

Hi Priscila! It sounds like a good scenario to work with shared models to me, as they will need to make decisions as a team. Something that sounds appealing to me is working on the skills they will need to actually overcome their crisis first, and then working on what could be their plan for the future. Both plans have in common one question: what…[Read more]

July 13th Update:

I already had 2 personal brand workshops, based on finding their identity. Johari’s was a good idea, as I had used before on similar quests but in this case, it really added tangible value to participants (meaning, not “whiteboard value”, not written but built) and through the models they built they were able to find elements on…[Read more]

Hi Francine, Gabriel and Andrew,

Thanks for your advice.

It turns out that the practical sessions in this event are only going to be 40 minutes long!
The organising team have wisely decided not to go ahead with using LSP in this context.

Danny

Do it right or don’t do it at all !

Hi Danny,

I think Francine’s ideas are great.

A few years ago I had to design and facilitate a worksop to help a tech startup better collaborate after being acquired by a tech giant. The CEO’s main concern at the time was seeing an increasing level of silo mentality. So the workshop focused on two main elements trust and collaboration in an agi…[Read more]

Hola Alejandro,

Great initiative! Although I didn’t call it brand, I designed quite few workshops that focused on personal identity. I saw it more as a piece of a greater puzzle. What makes an organization, is a collection of teams, and what constitutes a team, is a collection of individuals. So designed a workshop I would offer to e…[Read more]

I think that with only 2 hours, you can just scratch the surface of how the team might come together around a common goal. Exercises like the duck and tower or bridge can be used for skill building, as well as to illustrate the differences in approaches and styles. You could then have them build a model of the ideal workplace by first creating the…[Read more]

Hello Danny,
I’m Francine from Montréal, Canada.
The suggestions from some members of this forum helped me very much.

I had success in a 45min demo workshop last May, where we found solutions for an SME presenting environmental challenges! Stressful but rewarding after all :)
I have also experienced with LSP at team building workshop with…[Read more]

Hey all,

Thanks for your replies.
I totally agree with all of you. Clear objectives are key in that regard. Well I am not quite there yet as right now I just had a phone call with an event agency who want to present to the client the approach. So right now I personally believe that they want to work LSP as an experience factor and have no clue…[Read more]
