Lego Serious Play - introduction, practice, apply

Bags and ownership
Introduce the bricks:
Sorting exercise
Duck exercise (yellow and red) - group level introduction/story

All the bricks - "the biggest challenge my organisation faces is..."
Notes on the protocol:
The story reveals that you can spontaneously find something meaningful to say.
You use your own eyes to the others' direct attention.
Your hands the audience's direct attention too but also engages your own authorial focus, pointing out details and features, even discovering new ones on-the-fly.
The conversation becomes focused on the object (rather than the author).
Suggestions are inspired or excited from the object, it acts as a catalyst or prompt.
The conversations involve careful turn taking, tending to be more balanced, with more to and fro.
