Why Use Our SERIOUS PLAY® Events?

1. We are members of the Master Trainers’ Association of Certified Facilitators and Trainers with a deep expertise in the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method.
2. We focus on working with small groups and teams, opening space for teams to focus on the small details, allowing each person to be heard safely, and opening pathways to meaningful relationships within teams.
3. We know that each person holds knowledge and experience valuable to the team’s and larger enterprise’s success. Sharing and contributing to traditional meetings may not be comfortable, even though everyone naturally wants to be heard and contribute.   Success depends not on the leader but on all voices being heard and contributing.

What Others Say About Our SERIOUS PLAY Events

1. I have attended more planning sessions over the years than I can count and this was something different, the use of LEGO brought a completely new creative aspect to the thought process, and you were able to fully explore the symbolism of the topic by having to create something out of LEGO to portray your thoughts and feelings.    Moneta
2. In terms of group involvement, everyone having a voice, and gaining the outcomes required for the team to agree on what was important, we hit the mark!  The Networkers, Rolleston
3. Thank you seems very small – you made the team come out of their shells and people who did not even speak up in the office were contributing amazing things!  Every person had fun, and we all took away learning, so THANK YOU very much!  Enatel

4. What I enjoyed the most is that everyone could speak and express their ideas, and there was no “wrong” answer so everyone was very comfortable doing this.  I just loved it! And will be recommending your sessions to everyone I can.  Blue Sky Real Estate

Random Fact – More than 50 years ago, neuroscientists found that a surprisingly large part of the human brain is dedicated to controlling the hands (Penfield & Rasmussen, 1950). This profound interconnection between the brain and the hands means “that the hands are not simply a valuable place to get information from, or to manipulate objects ‘with’, but also that thinking with the hands can have meaning in itself” Read more of this research here
