Hi Manuel,

This could be interesting – I saw TrainedOn, and it looks like a fabulous platform. However I am concerned about the price! One could just use the DropBox that was made available by our instructor to just drop a bunch of case examples and it’s free (up to a certain space). It would be nice to hear from the community and see what they…[Read more]

Hi Gabriel,

Thank you for your reply.
Well confidentiality is an issue somehow which I can totally in understand.
What I still don’t understand is that the questions and results within LSP could be shared without risk, as they make only sense to those involved in the process on the one hand even pictures if not disclosing any personal or client…[Read more]

Hi There Manuel,

I think it makes sense! The only issue I have is confidentiality. With most of my clients I am bound by a confidentiality and non disclosure agreement, which prevents me from publishing anything on the web about the work I do with them, even if do not divulge their names. What would work for me however is a secured platform that…[Read more]

Ok, as there are no replies within a few weeks I could assume that nobody is interested in a shared lsp facilitation knowledge platform.

Or was everybody to busy doing workshops?

I’d like to hype this once more as I believe that such a platform would be a huge enhancement to our collaboration and preparation processes.

What do you think?

Interesting! I assume they are for the LEGO Education version of LSP? They tend to have set numbers and the like on even the smallest of fiddle bags, and the selection of bricks seem more child oriented; more accessories, two figures, castle helmet, etc.

Besides your own solutions I sometimes work together with a visual facilitator who makes visual notes based on people’s stories and the things they tell in between the lines. We print those notes and sketches right at the end of the session, so everybody can bring them back to their workingplaces. Usually it’s a nice reminder – that covers the…[Read more]

Sean,

Thank you for sharing this. It is certainly not the first nor the last time when media pick on LEGO SERIOUS PLAY methodology. While the general public rarely cares about work in private sector, I have also delivered “play sessions” for governmental institutions at different countries, which has raised interest among media. Sometimes…[Read more]

I am absolutely sure this won’t be an issue. LEGO protects their rights over the LEGO logo aggressively, but never heard about a case when they went after an image of a LEGO construction.

I am also pretty sure there is no legal base for that – then, you couldn’t use photographs of your car, washing machine, whatever product either…

So, just…[Read more]

Hugues,

Not sure that I understand your question. Can you please elaborate with some examples what types of inputs are you looking from the community?

Kind regards,
Marko

Hi, I’ve also used the pencil pot challenge, but to explore leadership. Like Marko I’ve given the instructions to half the team and an objective to the other half. Those with the instructions build an identical product, those with an objective build something functional and innovative. I then ask ‘what type of leadership do you prefer?’ This…[Read more]

Hi Manuel.

Indeed, I have used pencil cup/letter dog exercise as a simple ice-breaker, but it is the most powerful in an instance where you have a relatively bureaucratic company looking for more flexibility. In those situations where the company past has fostered the truisms that the procedures, budgets and instructions are paramount. What I…[Read more]
