Days 1 & 2: Playology: What’s Your Next Strategic Play®?
Why is Adult Play so important? How we play is directly linked to how we learn, think, work, feel, perform, and interact with others. What you learn in play you remember for life!
This immersion program includes all the bricks, cogs, and wheels found in a LEGO®facilitator’s play chest! We have strategically blended: Six Bricks, LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® methods, Playsonality™, Now What the Duck, and LSP 3D Diagnostic Cards into one complete two-day program so you can sample a variety of different programs for different user groups. Think of it like an assorted box of chocolates.
This is a facilitated thinking and communications technique. Our Playology program draws on extensive research from the fields of business, organizational development, psychology, and learning. Using hand-brain knowledge, we will share the processes that surface information, explore ideas, create better options, develop deeper knowledge, and identify solutions faster with 100% engagement.
You will walk away with new insights about the power of play and how we all use play daily to build engagement and resilience.
