    Eli De Friend replied to the topic Conflict mediation with LSP? in the forum Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Pro Forum 9 years, 3 months ago

    Hi Martin,
    One question that can get this sort of discussion going is “what happened in the past”.
    Perhaps introduce the discussion in a wider context with more people. If the problem doesn’t emerge during the wider discussion, you will at least have uncovered some interesting perspectives. You would then be able to drill down with those who are…[Read more]

    Sounds good, did the conflict in your case already escalate into an argument? I have to defuse the situation I think, your solution seems to help. I think I will need to talk to the both first, so that I can dig deeper into what the situation really is. Having them build their perceptions and insights on the situation might help indeed.

    Hi Martin,

    What I have done is to use LSP as a methodology for both parties to express them perspective on a certain topic.

    So, my process is quite simple: introduction (warm-up), then perspectives and insights on subject a, then on subject b and then to have both sides to create a potential stabilized solution with a core concept of a and…[Read more]

    Hi all,

    I have two colleagues who are arguing on and off and today broke out into a pretty childish conflict. It’s gone on long enough and I want to help them understand each other better. I will give them an announcement for a session on Thursday where we will try to work out this conflict of theirs. I am also their manager, so I think they will…[Read more]

    I was thinking about not responding :P
    Jokes aside, I believe with the LSP Team script you have a great way to bring to the table what you already look for and be ready for surprises … I have used it for problem resolution. Is very important that the facilitator is not involved personally in any of the issues, If you facilitate then resist the…[Read more]

    Hi All,

    I am currently working on an issue we have today: some people don’t reply to emails at all!
    You send a request through email to some colleague and you don’t receive any answer back.
    I think LSP could help solving this issue and I am wondering if someone has already applied LSP to such a scenario.

    Thanks a lot,

    Luca

    Yla Eason started the topic Pitching LSP Benefits in the forum Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Pro Forum 9 years, 3 months ago

    I am wondering how other facilitators provide any “proof” of the benefits of an LSP workshop. When asked “how did it improve employee performance?” or “Can you show the return on investment?” what replies are effective?

    Is there any guides to “how to sell in LSP or convince skeptics of the benefits?”

    Any tips would be welcome.

    Thanks,

    Yla Eason

    Hola Rubén!

    Antes que nada muchas gracias por contestar.

    Claro que entiendo el valor de la certificación y créeme que ya estuve revisando precios e incluso ya tengo pensado con quiénes tomarla; encontré una empresa que trae directamente a Per a México para las certificaciones y creo que sería lo ideal tomarla con él. Lo que sí es una realidad…[Read more]

    hola Jesus. He leído tu mensaje sobre cómo cerrar un taller Lego Serious Play. Entiendo que aún no te has certificado pero que facilitaras un taller en dos meses. Si es así, te recomiendo acudir a facilitadores certificados para que colaboren contigo.

    Hi!

    I’m new here, and new to LSP as well.
    I’ve been studying every source I found since I came to know about this awesome methodology, I’ve been using Legos for my workshops on public speaking and presentation skills for a while, but didn’t know this existed until now.

    In 2 months I’m going to facilitate my first workshop using LSP but I would…[Read more]

    Hi Gabriel,

    Yes, a pair build is when two individuals build a single construction – a hybrid between individual and shared. You have the basic advantages of negotiation, while still maintaining a certain intimacy/privacy.

    Regarding connections, most participants are already doing it before we get to that formal step, so the answer to the…[Read more]

    Hi Eli and Sebastian,

    thank you very much for your respective inputs.

    General question to both of you: when you designed your respective workshops, did you at any time mention to your client you were going to use LSP? In other words was was the selling argument? I still struggle with that part. I always use a solutions based approach and end up…[Read more]

    Hi Gabriel,
    I recently ran a “Team-Building” Workshop for MSC Cruises with Tatiana Gavrilova and Joyce Miller. This was a mandate we got through the seriousplaypro web site, so we will be paying 10% of our fees back to seriousplaypro as a referral fee.
