Engagement Workshops

During the workshop, each participant is invited to build an answer or solution to a question with LEGO® bricks. This approach promotes "thinking through your fingers," using symbolism, story telling, and cross-cultural understanding.

Each participant is also asked to put their contribution in the spotlight. This comes from one of the principles of LEGO SERIOUS PLAY, namely that every stakeholder can contribute to the solution.

LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY benefits teams by enhancing:

• • Internal collaboration 

  • Leadership development

  • Intercultural communication

  • Storytelling

Sample activity: Invisible building challenge

Divide team into groups of 4-6 members. Each group is divided in half with one half receiving a structure built of LEGO bricks and the other half given loose LEGO bricks to build with. Separate groups with a physical barrier. The group with the pre-built structure with explain to the other half of their team how to build the structure without showing them what it looks like. The team with the most accurate re-creation wins.

1. Time Poverty: Poorly structured planning meetings use time inefficiently.

2. Poor Preparation: Meeting participants are either assigned too little or too much preparation for sessions..
