About Program
LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® is a methodology for exploring and dealing with real issues and challenges in real-time. It is not a training course you attend. It is a science-based process and draws on extensive research from the fields of business, organizational development, psychology, and learning. It draws on extensive research from the fields of business, organizational development, psychology and learning, and is based on the concept of “hand knowledge.”
The train-the-trainer program is ideal for professional consultants, coaches, trainers, educators, researchers as well as in-house trainers, learning and development specialists, HR staff, and team leaders.
The facilitator training program is designed to provide the trainee, as a skilled facilitator,
with sufficient insights, information, and experiences to prepare and carry out interventions and workshops using the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® methodology. The training provides the facilitator with hands-on experiences, theory, facilitation guidelines and application ideas.
HOW DID LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® Facilitator Training PROGRAM COME INTO EXISTENCE
The LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® methodology and brand is proprietary and owned by the LEGO Group, who has developed and distributed the concept since 2001.
Since May 2010 LEGO ®SERIOUS PLAY® has been Open Source, which also means that LSP facilitator training is available on a broader basis and without having to obtain a license agreement with the LEGO Company.
The LEGO© SERIOUS PLAY® train-the-trainer program is developed and maintained by The Association of Master Trainers in the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® methodology of which Robert Rasmussen (From Denmark) is one of the founding members.
