LSP Conference and Advanced Trainings curated by intHRface


I wear many professional hats and sometimes this means there is nothing to share publicly and sometimes this provides me the opportunity to post an article twice in a week! This week is one of those weeks!

Another thing is that it takes me a great deal to record and publicly share a video of me and yet here I am doing exactly that and for good reason too. It is for the Annual LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® Conference at LEGOLAND Hotel and Conference Centre in Billund, Denmark in October 2024 which I am very much looking forward to attending.

If you are a facilitator of the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method and materials, you may want to consider it too. The details can he found here: lego-serious-play-conference-advanced-training

I am at my happiest when I am cutting the grass at the farm. However my second happy place has got to be attending The Annual LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® Conference at LEGOLAND Hotel and Conference Centre in Billund, Denmark.

Now, we all know LSP is a about unlocking potential, and this year's conference theme is all about "When Wrong is Right: Learning from Failure through Play".

Imagine this: a room buzzing with passionate facilitators, LSP veterans and insightful keynote speakers where "wrong" builds become stepping stones to breakthrough ideas. We're not afraid to experiment, to see our metaphorical castles crumble, because that's how we learn and adapt. It's like failing epically forward with LEGO bricks in hand, each iteration revealing a new facet of the problem. The event is curated by intHRface and chaired by Professor Johan Roos. We'll be dissecting real-world LSP case studies where "wrong" builds lead to ground-breaking solutions. Plus, there's the buzz of co-creating new exercises that embrace the power of failure within the LSP framework.

It's pure LSP alchemy, transforming perceived mistakes into golden opportunities. As a facilitator who wants to push the boundaries of LSP, that's pure happiness.

It's Billund, Denmark, where failing with LEGO bricks becomes the ultimate key to success. Now that's my happy place.

Rain, A Crow, and Falling Stars: Haiku Love Reborn

“Rain falls down kissing the crow on the bright green grass, yellow stars falling" - Powered by Dall-E 3. Haiku is the traditional Japanese poetic form which captivates readers with its brevity and evocative imagery. I first created a created a haiku in the 1990’s and I have been mystified by their conciseness and beauty ever since. Yesterday (26.05.2024), I attended a haiku workshop called “Nature’s Meditation”, facilitated by Nora D’Ecclesis and organised by Thane Lawrie , and it was a truly empowering experience of our own individual sensory journeys on a dreich Sunday lunchtime. Surrounded by other members of the Aberdeenshire Soto Zen group that I attend (albeit on Google Meet) who were also interested in this concise art form, I learned about the power of observation and how to condense vivid imagery into a mere 17 syllables. The workshop fuelled my creativity and left me with a newfound sense of poetic achievement. After a great dive into the history of haiku and

Karen Grayburn presenting our group work to the floor I have just returned from an incredible week immersed in the world of LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® at the Annual International Conference at the LEGOLAND Hotel and Conference in Billund, Denmark.

When It is OK Not To Share: A Blogger's Quandary

“A Field of Dreams" by Karen Grayburn. The weekend just gone was absolutely incredible. What a fantastic and fabulous time. A gathering of friends of thirty-odd years in a field in Aberdeenshire for three days - and prepping the festival area for five days before that. It was a delight! I want to blog about it, but it seems just too sacred an experience to share openly. Blogging and content-writing is often seen as a platform for open and honest expression. A space where we share our thoughts, experiences, and passions with the world. But what happens when you have something burning to say, something that feels important and genuine, yet it's simply not appropriate to share publicly? It's a frustrating dilemma. You grapple with the urge to connect with your audience on a deeper level, to be truly authentic. But there's a line, a boundary that must be respected. Perhaps it's a personal matter that could hurt others, or something that might be misinterpreted an
