Awesome. send me an email with ur deets! rob@roboddi.com

That sounds awesome! Count me in.

I’ve done a couple with the theme “What would a supportive community for X look like?” It allows folks to consider the future direction the community that has come to the conference. At 2 hrs I have done a shared model. I’ve used explorer kits and asked folks to build the shared model in a way they can recover the kit. In one case I was able to…[Read more]

I agree Ben, and thanks for the video link. I remember seeing that video. It’s true.. the conference can be tough, but im an expert of the topic of the conference (organizational change), so i’ll find a way to do both a ‘sell’ and ‘add value!’

thx again

I thought Dr Marko Rillo’s session at the Joomla World Conference was an excellent way to get people learning about LEGO Serious Play. A lot of the 2 hour session was about teaching the audience about play. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQncdPcvfKk

I like Eli’s idea of providing a fictional scenario. The issue with conferences is that you will…[Read more]

Hi Rob,

I think many of us on here have had your challenge. Naïvely, I used to think that I could use a facet of the conference’s theme while uniting the group through the one thing that links the participants, the conference itself. So in your case, I would in the past develop a 2-hour roadmap about how should the organising committee of the…[Read more]

Hi Sophie,
By the moment I don’t use music in workshops. But I’m tempted. I’m sure soon or later I will try that with some Henry Mancini’s songs for films. I think they have the potential to fit with the perfect mood required by some kind of questions. I found many pieces great to create a playfulness ambience: A Profound Gass, Baby Elephant…[Read more]

Hi there ladies & gentlemans,

What for a great contribution on this topic!

I created a spotify playlist based on my own selection and some of the songs described here……. I dont know how to share it, feel free to follow me.

Take it back – Ed Sheeran
Still young – The Cat Empire
Brighter than gold – The Cat Empire
Happiness – Jonathan Jeremiah
Street spirit – Radiohead
Try and make sense – MOAT
The Walker – Fitz and the Tantrums
Can’t hold us – Macklemore & Ryan Lewis
Move on up – Curtis…[Read more]

I have found recently that folks who aren’t familiar with what a moose is nor LEGO have a time putting it together. You substitute to the Windows…[Read more]

I have a public Spotify playlist if you’re interested. https://open.spotify.com/user/123895693/playlist/5Gs4talVveRL1dZWWK1Fk1

It’s all instrumental, high energy, good beats. Have a listen. It may not be right for everyone but i like it.

Hi Guy, ignore my question. I have found the Moose on-line.
Thanks again for the ideas!
Matevz

Hi, thanks for your advices. I have just one more question for Guy:
What is Mike Bowler’s Moose? We didn’t use it during our training sessions. Can it be made by bricks from Teaser bags? Would you be so kind to share the instructions?
Is there any model with building instrucions that can be build from Teaser bags (for the Metaphors c…[Read more]

Thanks guys! great to talk about the aspect of music, cause it does create an atmosphere. I usualy go for old style jazz, but will check out your suggestions as well.
