Lego Serious Play

LEGO Serious Play™ is a business tool designed by the manufacturers of LEGO. It is not owned by Sandbox; however, we are licenced facilitators of the method. It is a tool for building results, fast-tracking to the real issues, reaching confidence and commitment to shared goals, fully harvest your organisations imagination and make better decisions.

It may sound like a kid’s game, but Sandbox is one of the few places in the UK that is licensed to use LEGO Serious Play™. The model is simple and profound. Individuals or groups build metaphorical models of their system or organisation – these are representative, rather than realistic; and by getting users ‘thinking with their hands’, they allow them to look at the systems of their organisation in a completely different way. It creates a strong sense of lateral, rather than literal thinking.

The models are meaningful, and the process of sharing these creates a strong sense of group thinking, co-operation and impact. It’s a creative, fun and demanding process that works on two key assumptions; leaders don’t have all of the answers and that people naturally want to contribute.
