Overcome the obstacles to Greater Performance.
An interactive speaker workshop for CEO and Business Owner Peer Groups, and for Senior Leadership Teams with their CEO or Business Owner. Step away from the business, sit around one table and build what is hard to say. Then look at it together.
53 seconds, filmed during a Making the Invisible > Visible workshop.
When the pressure is high.
When the game has changed.
When the next decisions matter.
You do not want to F* up what’s next.
Your members have heard plenty of speakers. What they rarely get is the space to build and see their own situation clearly, with equals around the table.
You book a speaker. Your members get a workshop. It is not theory. It is not another slide deck.
It is a space4change: an active environment where leaders think in three dimensions, shift perspective and explore complexity through play. The insight comes from the room, not from the front of it.
LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® gives your brain a hand. Each leader builds a model, gives it meaning through metaphor and tells its story. The bricks become a common language, hierarchy levels out and what people know, including what they did not know they knew, comes to the surface.
Pressure narrows thinking. This first section makes visible the pressure each leader carries, so the decisions in front of them can be seen clearly. Once the pressure is visible, it can be worked with.
The group explores a live business scenario together, seeing the relationships, the hidden dynamics and the choices at the roundabout before they arrive: to scale, to endure, to do nothing, to exit or to close. Not deciding is still a decision.
Back to your own business. Each leader leaves with their own blueprint: a clear view of the decision now ready to be made, what stands in the way, and one or two commitments to act on immediately.

“We engaged Alan to deliver LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® to all three of our groups. Alan had everyone intrigued from the first moments and by the time we started building we were hooked. There were serious learning points throughout and non-stop insights and practical outcomes… It is highly effective to involve mind and hand together so we can see and hold a challenge in front of us rather than simply think about it.”
“I have known Alan since 2002 when I signed him up as a LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® licensed partner in the UK… He approaches the task and people involved with an open mind and a relentless drive to understand what the real issue is, to get to the heart of what is really at play. Once that is clear, one can feel certain that a solution will emerge, and be executed upon.”
“I have used Lego Serious Play, facilitated by Alan, on a number of occasions and found it not just fantastically insightful and enjoyable but fundamental in shaping my business strategy. Lego Serious Play, through its unique and fun model, allowed me to consider business opportunities and challenges and develop my business strategy to grow the business.”
For chairs and members of peer groups and mastermind groups who want their members to leave with more than a talk: clarity on real decisions, built from the wisdom in the room.
For leadership teams facing a consequential choice together, where the CEO or owner wants every voice heard before the decision is made.
