Certified LEGO® Serious Play® Trainings.

Learn to design and facilitate your own workshops using the LEGO® Serious Play® method. 

Expand your facilitation skills.

With the LEGO® Serious Play® method you can support with team building, change projects, strategy definition, innovation projects, retrospectives or vision workshops. We use LEGO® models to playfully co-create new ideas, improve communication and accelerate problem solving. With our trainings, you will learn the method and, as a certified trainer, you will be able to facilitate your own workshops.

1. Choose your desired training

In our trainings you will learn to use the method in your own workshops.

2. would you rather book a workshop?

You don't have to be trained right away. We will develop an individual workshop for you in which we creatively tackle challenges together. 

Strategy

We make your strategy tangible! Start with a shared "tangible" vision, a valuable basis for successfully tackling the project. Together we focus on the challenges that need to be overcome in order to live the vision and implement it. You set off with concrete agreements and next steps, gladly also with our further co-creative support.

Innovation

We tickle the optimum out of your creative potential! Live our motto "There's still more to be done!" so that you leave the status quo behind and redesign challenges: From ambitious visioning to solution sketches to concrete activities. In experiments, you validate the chances of success of your new solutions, in line with the "Lean Startup" approach.

Change

When it comes to bringing values, a new corporate culture or strategy to life, our co-creative expertise offers the ideal support. By jointly designing how the new plans can be lived, we quickly make vague ideas concrete. Abstract ideas become tangible, and the shared understanding releases energy and creates a spirit of optimism. We make use of this right away and do not let you go without experiments with which you start the change. We are happy to support you on your way with regular sprints.

Team

Teams need two factors to work together successfully: On the one hand, they have an ambitious vision of what you want to achieve. At the same time, they have a common understanding of what is important for successful cooperation and who contributes what. We help with this big step from "I" to "WE" and bring teams into the common future full of verve.

"Thank you again for the great training, the comprehensive documents and the starter kit! Since I was so enthusiastic about the well-structured process and your training concept, I immediately followed the impulse and registered for the CoCreACT® training in January. My colleague (..) was a bit "jealous" after our last exchange or brainstorming on a workshop design. She had done her LSP Certified Facilitator training elsewhere and noticed that your training input (including the great document) is much more substantial, especially with regard to the background information, the workshop design and the facilitator tips, and that the insights from the training are obviously clearly noticeable! Now that's praise :-). By the way, I am especially grateful for the tip that the warm-ups can also be used in the context of clarifying the assignment - that really kills several birds with one stone!"

"I can recommend the Lego® Serious Play® Certified Facilitator Training to anyone who is engaged in developing visions and strategies in a playful yet very serious way. Personally, the training gave me many new, surprising insights for my work with product teams. I'm already very excited to see how it works live, so I'm especially happy about your offer of the coaching session!"
