Step 1: Pose the Right Questions

The first step in the LEGO Serious Play methodology involves posing strategic, open-ended questions that are directly relevant to the challenges and opportunities facing your organization. The facilitator, crafts these questions to provoke thought, encourage exploration, and prompt creative thinking. For example, questions might center on exploring future way of communications within a the team, potential areas for innovation, or addressing team dynamics. The aim is to engage every participant, ensuring that the questions stimulate their thinking about issues that are critical to the organization's success.

Step 2: Build Your Vision

During the build phase, participants physically construct their responses using LEGO bricks. This process is deeply immersive and allows participants to express ideas that are difficult to articulate with words alone. This stage is vital as it visually brings abstract concepts to life, offering a new perspective on old problems. The act of building and experimenting with structures encourages participants to think differently, often leading to breakthrough concepts, ideas and solutions that would not emerge through traditional brainstorming.

Step 3: Share and Discuss

Once building is completed, participants share their models and the stories behind them with the group. This sharing process is crucial as it fosters understanding and empathy among team members, allowing them to see different perspectives and appreciate the diversity of thinking within the team. For all attendes, this phase enhances communication skills, promotes active listening, and builds a culture of openness and respect. It's also an opportunity to identify common themes or conflicting views that may require further exploration.

Participants discuss as well what each element of their model represents to them and how it relates to the question posed. This exploration is guided by the facilitator but driven by the participants, who discuss their own models. It’s a powerful moment when shared insights emerge, revealing underlying assumptions, new opportunities, or potential challenges. These insights are often unexpected and provide significant value, helping teams understand complex situations in a multidimensional space.

Step 4: Reflect and Apply

In the final step, reflection allows participants to consolidate their learning and consider how the insights gained from the session can be applied to real-world scenarios. This might involve action planning, setting goals, or developing new strategies based on the outcomes of the workshop. The facilitator helps guide this discussion, ensuring that the team considers practical ways to implement their ideas. Reflection ensures that the session has a lasting impact, translating creative dialogue and LEGO models into actionable steps that drive progress.
