Hi Irene,

As I understand it, anyone can use Lego bricks in their offerings as long as they do not infringe copyright or trademark rules or make it seem that they represent Lego in any shape or form and that applies to LSP offerings and non-LSP offerings. See here for guidelines on Trademark…[Read more]

Good question, I am waiting for an official answer…

Hi Marcos,
I always tell potential clients that team-building is an unavoidable by-product of the LSP process. Therefore it is better value and actually helps the process if the team can focus on a specific subject. The fact that they are German and Mexicans should only influence what language they use.

Activities you might want to consider…[Read more]

Yes, I think it’s a great idea.

1. I ask the participant to imagine a duck.
2. Gave the partcipants the instruction step by step of how to build the duck (2 minutes).
2. I gave them a picture of the duck, and ask them to build the same duck as the image.
3. Just Build a duck.
4. Build as many ducks as they can in 3 minutes.

The insight was…[Read more]

Pamela –

GREAT that things went well. And wonderful that you found a lot of information to mix and match to produce the session that you wanted.

What the GROUP might find helpful is an overview of what you actually did in enough detail that they might be able to reproduce key outcomes. Modeling is such a useful endeavor and we would all benefit…[Read more]

Thank you, so much for your advise. In the end I made a mix of all your advise. And the workshop was great.
I am very grateful for your help.

:) Thank you so much, such a great community.

Years ago, using Tinker Toys, I would read from a list as to how an object was to be constructed, with commands such as,

– take a round, 8-hole wheel and put a 4-inch blue stick into the center hole
– on 4 of the holes in the rim of that wheel, put 2-inch yellow sticks.
– on the other 4 holes in the rim of that wheel, put 1-inch green sticks
-…[Read more]

Are there any anchoring frameworks to the issues of TRUST with this play?

Any ideas as to how to build in some accountability or interpersonal trust between people in play?

If you look globally at exercises and tools, there are only a few things like trust falls and trust walks that seem to be used to demonstrate these behaviors and patterns.

Please add me as well info@drschmid-consult.com

Thanks

Hi Pamela – StrategicPlay has a whole book full of great ducking ideas. You may want to check it out: https://www.amazon.com/Strategic-Play-Creative-Facilitators-Guide/dp/1783240458/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1487962139&sr=8-2&keywords=jacqueline+Lloyd+Smith

One that I use consistently with great success is I give a different set of instructions to…[Read more]

Yep!

First step: asking part of the audience to create a duck, draw it and the pass the draw to the one in the left. And the other part of the audience, to NOT create the duck, just imagine it, list the steps to create the duck and pass to the left.

On the second step, each one builds the duck based on the instructions received.

On last, close…[Read more]

Thank you Rodrigo, Communications skills would be great, Do you have some ideas to share?

Thank’s a lot

Pamela

Hi Pamela,

Is there any specific learning goal for this workshop?

If not, design for fun + communication.

Ping me if would like to talk about.

Have fun,

Rodrigo

Thanks for the feedback. The position I’m coming from is the use of the Tobii Pro 2 glasses during a small group workshop using the LSP Window Explorer pack. Of interest to me is the eyetrack on the model during conversation and explanations. Secondary interest is the build process – particularly for the metaphor section where people use on of…[Read more]

Hi Stephen,
As the LSP community is so vast now, I wouldn’t count out the possibility that studies might have been conducted in the area of eye-tracking during an LSP process, although I would think it is highly improbable.
Such research might influence how we present the methodology. Another aspect of participant behaviour that we “know”, while I…[Read more]
