Description(NOTE: Attendance at this workshop is limited to the first 15 attendees that show up due to limited LEGO Bricks.)

The "Leading Change - Managing Pace" program is specifically designed to address games to change attitudes, beliefs or behaviors. Partnering with LEGO(R) Serious Play (LSP) to create a unique interactive workshop, using LEGO(R) Bricks to model solutions for promoting changing attitudes, beliefs or behaviors. The solutions built will serve as a call to action on what you can do to help address the issue. The LEGO(R) Serious Play (LSP) program incorporates a hands-on process that draws on the power of creative thinking to shift group conversation from talking heads to focused minds. Each table will be run as a facilitated conversation with physical LEGO brick constructions that will powerfully shift a group to more productive outcomes by accomplishing a deeper mining of the diverse wisdom within the group and a clearer shared conclusion on promoting changing attitudes, beliefs or behaviors. Through this workshop, attendees will share real life experiences, discuss challenges, network and build on-going relationships with others who are attending the conference. Ultimately, attendees of this workshop will find ways to unleash their creative thinking and transform ideas into concrete concepts.

In this workshop, attendees participate in an environment of rich, interactive experiences by modeling real-life business challenges and solutions with LEGO(R) Bricks as part of the LEGO(R) Serious Play Program (LSP). We work together in small groups to brainstorm and problem solve in a collaborative and productive way. The workshop includes people in various responsibility areas in teams. This way each role can impart their own unique perspective to the group, while collectively creating shared understandings that direct future activity effectively.

The session provides you with both theory and practice to enable you to apply the skills in our own context and environment. Benefit by learning about a unique technique that will supplement your game toolbox.

Play is finding a place in the office as companies push aside the whiteboards and speaker phones to make way for piles of brightly colored building blocks. Attend this session to implement innovative approaches and strategies that liven up training and to entrench key learning principles.
