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

Transcript:

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

By -

“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

The Whirling Dervish of Life: When Disparate Worlds Collide

By -

"The Whirling Dervish of Life" powered by DALL-E 3. I have known for about ten years that two of my seemingly disparate worlds in two very different timelines had become very close. That well-known phenomena of six degrees of separation had become one and this had filled me with a joyful warmth in the knowing of this connection. However I never expected these two worlds to collide, and I certainly didn’t realise the deeply profound effect it would have on me. I needed to know more about this. I needed to make some sense of it and that is the basis of this week’s article. Life unfolds in compartments. We navigate the world of work, the haven of family, the solace of friendships. These spheres often feel distinct, each with its own rhythm and cast of characters. But then, sometimes, the universe throws us a curveball – a moment of intersection. It's like two planets on vastly different orbits suddenly finding themselves drawn together by an unexpected gravitational pu
