How to Facilitate LEGO® Serious Play® ONLINE

New facilitation techniques for shared models online, and face to face.

In 2020, face-to-face things went online, from cookery classes to astronaut training. The LEGO® Serious Play® method went online too, and we wrote this book to go with our online classes.

It is a 194-page, full-colour book to help facilitators plan and deliver professional online workshops. Since March 2020, with help from more than 254 people, we have created brand new techniques for shared model building online that stay true to the hands-on, minds-on nature of the method.

Written with the support of master trainer Jens, and tested again and again by the SeriousWork community. Now in English, German and Italian.
