    Sebastian replied to the topic Project in Innovation Management,? Would you be willing to answer some questions in the forum Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Pro Forum 4 years, 9 months ago

    Hi Enrique, would be glad to fill in the survey.
    Unsure what youre after and whether its product or process innovation, iterative or disruptive innovation but I have held innovation workshops in Citibank, Honda, ANZ, Louis Vuitton, Danone etc using a mix of TRIZ, Design Thinking, Kaizen, LEAN 6 Sigma, etc. The usefulness I find is:

    Hi.. this sounds interesting as a title but am rather confused what it is, what does it do and what is its potential sinergy wirh LSP?

    Sebastian replied to the topic LSP for the classroom in the forum Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Pro Forum 4 years, 10 months ago

    Eli had a very good explanation of how humans (kids and adults) process metaphors. Incidentally I also do workshops with children from ages 4 (speaking age) to early teens and I have found that their grasp of understanding, modelling and explaining metaphors through LEGO (or any other physical object) is generally the same as adults. It is just a…[Read more]

    Hi Joy,

    In answer to you questions “..how do you in corporate settings get adults who haven’t played with LEGO before or not in 30 years to figure out how to convey ideas into bricks?”;

    I have been doing LEGO SP in corporate settings for several years now with thousands of participants.. staff level, middle managers, Board of Directors, M…[Read more]

    Sebastian replied to the topic Duplo or No Duplo, that is the Question … in the forum Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Pro Forum 4 years, 11 months ago

    I also use the Blue transparent DUPLO brick at the start of every session to explain the concept of metaphors. I always state “This brick represents my Mother in Law…. Why?” They then have a good time guessing size, transparency, wisdom, eight kids, calm, peacemaker, loves jewelry, etc. Its amusing and they get the point very quickly that youre…[Read more]

    Sebastian replied to the topic Facilitating a Group of 12 in the forum Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Pro Forum 5 years, 3 months ago

    Hi Melissa,

    12 should not be an issue if you facilitate the sharing and discussion well.
    I have run a table of 14 at one go with no major issues though I do not recommend it.
    I find that 6 is an ideal table size for time and richness of input.
    As Eli says having cofacilitators or even assistant facilitators is best and also distfibutes ebergy and…[Read more]

    Its great you brought this up Onno as I frequently ask this question whether in the Billund or Asia community gatherings or just on chat forums with other facilitators.
    In my experience the “it was great but can we do something else next time” is the norm not the exception. As per Obno and other facilitators concerns this comes up constantly.

    Sebastian replied to the topic lsp for senior project managers in the forum Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Pro Forum 6 years ago

    Hi Idan,

    In my experience the amount of activities you wish to implement are rather ambitious for 23 people in 2.5 hours. The questons are interesting enough though.

    Sebastian replied to the topic LSP and Industrial Process Improvement in the forum Group logo of Serious Play ForumSerious Play Pro Forum 6 years, 2 months ago

    Hi Ariel I have used a similar approach though applied to processes in banks.
    I used a LEAN and TRIZ Creativity Matrix Canvas for each group to:
    1 Identify the current process chain and process components in the system to be improved.
    2. Identify Process Waste, Redundancy, Inefficiency using LEAN 8 Waste Matrix
    3. Using TRIZ, identify process…[Read more]

    Hi Phek,

    Mathematically it should be in the 10s or hundreds of thousands of combinations or permutations or possibly even more..
    In reality in my experience if I ask 50 people to build ducks.. about 3 to 4 would be similar though not exactly so.

    However all 50 are building a duck according to how their hands and minds sees a duck.

    re the Real time Strategy for Teams.. an alternative method to use is the The Five Dysfunctions of a Team. By Patrick Lencioni model.
    Basically the exercise would be:

    Hi Eli and Marko,

    my 2 cents worth on this.

    The ethics of being certified in LEGO Serious Play has become an issue for me also.

    Originally I discovered LSP online and then got the open source documents and researched David Gauntlett, and other write ups on LSP. I then ran some workshops using LSP with some success, but then decided to learn…[Read more]

    Hi Enrique.. Would be happy to help. I’m based in Indonesia though.. I don’t know if that Asian perspective helps you?
    I’ve done variations of play learning, indoor and out with thousands of people over the years at staff to CEO levels… and it is a very effective method I find..

    Hi Manuel,
    Re your questions on what I assume are significant deviations from the stated objectives I would say no.
    However deviations from the script and workshop ‘activity blocks’ are something I frequently have to do for the following reasons:
