    Marko Rillo started the topic LSP Kit at Amazon in the forum Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Pro Forum 11 years, 2 months ago

    What a surprise – I browsed through some materials and found out that you may purchase now some LSP kits also via Amazon. There is a LSP Starter Kit for sale via 3rd party reseller called “Pumatrix”. Just that the price is more or less double of the LEGO Shop: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GVDCVKW/?tag=seriousplay-20 – anybody have any experience with them?

    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]

    Gabriel posted an update in the group Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Forum 11 years, 3 months ago

    Hello all, I am working my way to secure a large Telecom service provider. I saw in various presentations that Swisscom actually used LSP. Can anyone tell me for what application exactly and if at all possible which division of Swisscom?
    Thank you

    • Profile picture of Eli De Friend
      Eli De Friend replied 11 years, 3 months ago

      Hi Gabriel,

      Swisscom used LSP in a strategic programme to move from technology driven product development to human centric customer experience design.

      Orange Communications used LSP for strategy and branding in the very early days of research through The Imagination Lab.

      I also believe that some work was done with British Telecom around 2009,…[Read more]

        Eli,

        thank you very much, this is very helpful. It turns out that the Canadian company I am referring to will be speaking to Swisscom on another matter and just might bring up the topic of LSP.

        Thx again
        Gabriel

          Eli De Friend replied 11 years, 3 months ago

          The department in question is Swisscom Residential Brand Experience. However, I believe the leadership team from that time has now moved on.

      • Profile picture of Gabriel
        Gabriel replied 11 years, 3 months ago

        A presentation on LSP had a slide with a list of companies that used the method… Swisscom figured as one of them.

        • Profile picture of Eli De Friend
          Eli De Friend replied 11 years, 3 months ago

          But you don’t remember where you saw this presentation? I’m just curious. Obviously, if it was the CAPRESE web site, that would make sense – I’m more interested if other people / organisations refer to it. It enhances one’s credibility if third parties reference one’s work.

    I’m not 100% certain it’s resolved, but I simply put this receipt into my tax deduction forms and tried it. I’ll know in a year from now whether it was accepted ;-)

    I think it should be ok, it looks a lot like a Dutch invoice, has the right VAT % etc. Should be fine…

      Hi Mark,

      sorry for the late reply!
      I would make a distinction between LSP core and its derivative applications. Legoviews (which I have been doing in several context different from the initial experiments in Palestine) in NOT LSP, it’s a derivation as it lacks many elements of a workshop.

    Ah, 1 question sort of answered. I just received an invoice from Lego Denmark. The strange thing is that the invoice is in Dutch, with the Dutch VAT percentage (21%, DK apparently has 25%) and the bank that is listed is a Dutch bank.
