During CPSI 2022, our Spark Session day started quickly, with a brief introduction of Strategic Play trainers Jacquie Lloyd Smith and David Lunken.
Then we get our hands on the bricks. We designed this training to give people a great jumping in point so that they would be ready to facilitate with this powerful tool.
Everyone experienced how to:
-
Add LEGO® bricks and directives to their workshops to improve engagement;
-
Apply the five-step processes to improve communication.
-
Identify when Lego Serious Play can be most useful.
-
Supplement their own creative program.
-
Avoid conversational roundabouts.
-
Use flow theory and the underlying principles of neuroscience that make Lego Serious Play so powerful and memorable.
-
Facilitate and explore ideas on a deeper level using this fun tool.
Also, they got to take home four mini bags of bricks to test out with their families and friends!

"Jacquie is a very skilful, talented facilitator. I learned so much from attending her session and her facilitation style is what I aspire to achieve . The way she held the room, her knowledge, the way she dealt with potential disrupters, the pace she set, the debriefs, how her and David bounced off each other."
