Making It Click
TM
A place to learn LEGO® Serious Play® and put it to work.
When Words Fail
When some voices already carry more weight than others, the people invited to shape the work end up watching someone else shape it instead.
Sound familiar?
The sticky note exercise where half the room fills three notes and half fill none.
The focus group where two people talk, eight listen.
The planning retreat, where the loudest or most senior person in the room has (and keeps) the mic.
Formats that rely on people's ability to think fast,
out loud will always produce uneven results.
LEGO® Serious Play® methodology gives a structure that doesn't require verbal fluency on demand.
The builds elicit ideas that words simply can't, and get everyone's best thinking fast.
Whether you want to learn the method,
connect with others using it, or have a
ready-made resource to put it to work,
there's an opportunity to make it click.
Online Community
For people putting LSP to work, or getting ready to, who want a community to learn with and Back of the Napkin in their corner.
This annual membership connects people through a shared async Slack workspace, a monthly Zoom call, and a new LSP activity to try each month.
No certification required.
Training
These workshops are built for people who have never used LEGO® Serious Play® before. You work through a real organizational application as a participant, so you leave with both the methodology and a sense of what it can do.
Each training is a standalone experience and the entry point for the certification pathway.
Intro to LSP: An 8-hour, virtual foundation covering core concepts, builds, and facilitation principles across contexts.
Youth Voice and Program Design: An 8-hour session on using LSP to surface what young people actually think, believe, and need.
Evaluation and Logic Models: A 6-hour session on using LSP to build shared understanding of program activities and how they lead to intended impact.
Facilitator Certification
You design and facilitate an LSP workshop.
We review your session against a structured rubric about: session design, facilitation presence, reading the room, and in-the-moment response.
Scores that meet the threshold earn your certification. If yours don't, you'll receive your rubric and feedback, a coaching call to work through what to develop, and one free resubmission.
Virtual self-paced
Design your session, submit it for review before you facilitate, film it, and submit for scoring. Work at your own pace.
In person cohort
Facilitate with a small peer group, observe up to five other facilitators in action, and receive live feedback from two certified LSP facilitators. You leave with a recording of your session, a completed rubric with feedback from both facilitators, and feedback from your peers.
Guide Books
Practical, activity-based guides, based on common organizational topics and challenges, for facilitators who want to put LSP methods to work without starting from scratch.
No certification required.
Experienced facilitators can pick it up and go.
