This is leadership development.

We teach facilitation, not LEGO® bricks. Your people learn to plan any meeting backwards from its outcome, and to get the best from everyone in the room.

The LEGO® Serious Play® method is the most powerful tool they will learn. The skills work in any meeting or workshop, with or without the bricks.

What your organisation gets

Capability that stays when we leave.

Your colleagues will thank you for bringing energy, engagement and creativity back to your meetings.

01

Facilitators you keep

Certified facilitators inside your organisation, ready to run the workshops you would otherwise buy in.

02

Meetings that produce outcomes

“Outcomes not meetings” is chapter 2 of our first book. Our planning module has nothing to do with bricks, and works in any meeting.

03

Every voice in the room

Everyone builds and everyone speaks. People see, hear and build at once, so the whole group contributes from the first minute.

04

A real workshop in training week

Your new facilitators run a live workshop for colleagues on a challenge you choose. Value arrives during the programme, and the method spreads before we leave.

How it works

Five steps, one proposal.

  1. 1

    Tell us about your team

    Who will train, how many, and the challenges you want them to work on.

  2. 2

    Receive a costed proposal

    Bespoke to your organisation and your challenges, with a fixed price.

  3. 3

    Train together

    Planning skills and the method, practised on your own topics.

  4. 4

    Run a live workshop

    Your team runs a workshop for colleagues, on a challenge you choose, with us alongside.

  5. 5

    Keep going

    Mentoring, coaching and co-facilitation on strategic work, when you want it.

Why in-house costs less

One cohort. One fixed fee.

From eight participants, in-house usually costs less per person than sending people to public courses.

  1. 1You provide the room and lunchWe hire no venue, and pass the saving on.
  2. 2No flights or hotels for your peopleWe travel to you, or train you online. Nobody loses days to travel.
  3. 3Training time doubles as work timePractice happens on your real challenges, so the week produces work you would have done anyway.

After training

We stay with you.

Training is where it starts. Every graduate keeps learning with us, and so does your organisation.

Making the case to your boss?

Most in-house programmes start with one person and a sceptical boss.

We write the proposal so you can forward it as it stands: the outcomes, the format and a fixed price. If your boss needs more, book 20 minutes with Sean, our master trainer, and he will help you make the case.

In-house questions

Before you ask for a proposal.

How many people do we need?
In-house starts from eight participants. Below that, booking places on a public course usually costs less. Tell us your numbers and we design the programme so everyone facilitates and gets personal feedback.
In person or online?
Either. We train at your venue anywhere in the world, or live online. Our online techniques were developed with more than 254 people from March 2020, and online participants get a brick kit posted to them before day one.
Can the training be tailored to our organisation?
Yes, and it usually is. Your people practise on your own challenges, and the live workshop at the end of training tackles a topic you choose, for colleagues you invite.
Do participants receive the same certificate as on a public course?
Yes. Participants are certified on completion, based on facilitating in class, not on attendance. Certificates are issued digitally and can be verified.
Which course should our team take?
Most teams start with the 2-day course. If your people will work on strategy or complex organisational challenges, the 4-day Advanced course adds Build Level 3 system models. We recommend one in your proposal.
Who trains, and in which languages?
Our master trainers, who wrote the books on the method, lead in English. Our associate trainers also deliver in German, Korean, Mandarin and Cantonese.
