Professional Development Reimagined

GROWTH THROUGH DOING

Playthos Pro delivers workshops and training programs built on a simple truth: when you're actively engaged, using your hands, and imagination, you learn more, retain more, and perform better. 

The best learning happens when people are fully engaged

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Playthos Pro was founded on a simple but powerful idea: that play is not the opposite of work. Playthos is a mindset of showing up to your work with curiosity, openness and imagination. 

Our programs help professionals grow creative, divergent thinking that they can bring back into their teams, their strategy, and their daily work.

Programming that engages your whole brain

What This Training Is About

Most professionals were never taught to think with their hands. Somewhere between school and the boardroom, we stopped building things and started just talking about them and something got lost in the translation.

LEGO® Serious Play® gives it back.

This two-day immersive training is your introduction to one of the most powerful facilitation methodologies in the world and your certification to facilitate it. Over two full days, you'll experience LSP as a participant, learn it as a practitioner, and leave as a Playthos Pro Certified LSP Facilitator ready to bring it into your own work. 

Why LEGO® Serious Play®?

When you build something with your hands, your brain works differently. Research shows that 70% of the brain's sensory neurons connect to the hands, meaning physical construction activates thinking that sitting and talking simply can't reach. LSP leverages this to create sessions where:

  • Every voice is heard: no dominant personalities, no quiet corners

  • Complex ideas become visible: built in 3D utilizing LEGO® Bricks

  • Insights stick: because you made them to share them

Rooted in constructivist learning theory and co-developed with the LEGO® Group in the late 1990s, LSP has been used by Fortune 500 companies, universities, nonprofits, startups, and coaches worldwide. It works because it's built on how human beings actually learn.

What You'll Walk Away With

  • Playthos Pro Certified: LSP Facilitator credential recognized for your professional practice

  • A deep understanding of the Core Process and how to apply it

  • Hands-on experience across all LSP applications

  • Real practice facilitating live with feedback from peers and your trainer

  • Ready-to-use session designs for ideation, retrospectives, team alignment, and learning tools

  • The confidence to walk into any room and lead an LSP session independently

  • A peer network of certified facilitators and continued support from the Playthos Pro community

Who Should Attend

This training is for anyone who works with people and wants to do it more powerfully. If you solve complex problems, lead teams, coach individuals, or facilitate groups, LSP will change how you work.

Coaches · Consultants · L&D & HR Professionals · Educators · Team Leaders & Managers · Project Managers · Innovation Practitioners · Mental Health Professionals

Ready to Get Certified?

Space is intentionally small, 12 participants maximum so every person gets real practice time, real feedback, and real preparation to facilitate on their own.

Term of Service
