Building Wellbeing with LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®Introduction As well as being an LSP practitioner since 2017, I have been an associate at Belbin since 2014, where I deliver many of their workshops around the world as well as running accreditation courses. Belbin is one of the world’s most widely used tools for improving team performance, and I would like to take […]
The success of LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® (LSP) may be because it is aligned with the environment in which our brains evolved to operate. No two-dimensional charts, books, reports or screens (and if you are a purist, not even a PowerPoint slide). It lets us get back to the basics of face-to-face story-making and listening with […]
Over the last few years I have run workshops on wellbeing using LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®. Feedback from participants has frequently suggested that as well as the discussions about wellbeing being useful, they actually find the process of LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® beneficial to the their wellbeing as well. This suggestion that there might be something inherently […]
Many of us have quickly got used to video conferencing as a new way of having meetings and workshops but one big difference to the face-to-face equivalent is where our attention is focussed and the impact this has on our concentration. Viewing Options for All Video Conferencing Often we are using video conferencing when just […]
Since my last blog about online LEGO Serious Play (LSP), I’ve done quite a few more workshops, and I am still learning lots about what helps online sessions work best. What really helped was being able to do the same workshop six times in a week! I’ve got a whole bunch of things to say […]

But for short sessions (including online), these are just not practical because of their relative cost (roughly £25), their length of time for up-skilling participants for LEGO® Serious Play® (60 minutes […]
I have been running LEGO Serious Play (LSP) workshops on the topic of wellbeing for nearly two years, and knew that this was a workshop that worked and got great feedback from participants. I initially ran them as free sessions in the University of Cambridge’s annual Festival of Wellbeing (and still do), and through participants […]
How many participants? So far I’ve only tried with participants who don’t know each other. And from my experience, participants who don’t know each other have some but limited interest in listening to other participant’s stories. So sessions are kept small. I have not tried more than six people. I would recommend an upper limit […]
In September 2017 I qualified as a LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® facilitator, and since then loads of people have been interested to know what it’s all about, so I thought I would make it the topic of my first blog. Groups use LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® to tackle complex problems because it allows them to express and […]
