    Eli De Friend replied to the topic Looking for LSP experience feedback for a group of 50 pax in the forum Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Pro Forum 8 years, 1 month ago

    Hi Ariane, the answer is yes.

    Joyce and I tend to use a rule of thumb of approx. 15 participants / facilitator. Best practice is closer to 8 / facilitator, but most clients are reluctant to spend that much money on the facilitation and the coordination of all of the co-facilitators would almost require a full time person doing just that.

    Eli De Friend replied to the topic Job interview with LSP in the forum Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Pro Forum 8 years, 3 months ago

    Dear Joanna,
    The way I have understood your question is that you as a facilitator of LSP activities are being asked by a client to use LSP to support an interview process. I think it would be helpful to be careful with your terminology.
    A facilitator-led interactive process in which one participant builds metaphorical models with LEGO pieces and…[Read more]

    Hi Sabin,
    Thanks for your response. I can definitely see how such a tool would be useful for virtual teams collaborating on the same project. Perhaps the Slack Channel could be used for anyone wanting to develop the seriousplaypro web site and as you say newly trained facilitators who want to keep the buzz going or ask their trainer for…[Read more]

    Hi Guys,
    I had never heard of slack channel until today, so I looked it up in Wikipedia. After browsing through the features and other aspects, I have to ask how such a communications medium can be of more value than the WordPress CMS system that we already have.

    Just curious,

    Dear Belen,

    Thanks for your interest in LSP. If you really have no other option than to read a book, I would suggest that you start with “Building a Better Business Using the Lego Serious Play Method” by Per Kristiansen and Robert Rasmussen. However, I personally don’t think that two-dimensional text can do justice to an interactive…[Read more]

    Hi Manon,

    This is a great challenge, indeed!

    I have been doing big groups workshops. My suggestions would be to focus just in two concepts:
    1) Warm-up for about 40 minutes.
    2) The topic you would like this group to discuss.
    And instead of having strong facilitators collaboration (would be the best, but as you mention is a little expensive for…[Read more]

    Hi Luis,

    I have been workshops with close to this numbers.
    In my humble opinion, there is no chance to get deep in it, but for sure good instances of learning and group sharing.

    I would start with a good amount of time for a warm-up, close to one hour. Then, getting two different concepts in an hour per concept exercise; probably based in what…[Read more]

    This article appeared earlier today in the Observer section of the Guardian.

    From its founding in 1932 until 1998, Lego had never posted a loss. By 2003 it was in big trouble. Sales were down 30% year-on-year
