003 - Why a training to become a LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® Facilitator

In this episode of the Bricks Boutique Hotel podcast, Michel and Matthias discuss why professional training is essential to become a LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® facilitator. They share their personal experiences and explain why books and videos may be inspiring but cannot replace structured training. The focus is on the 4-day training provided by the Association of Master Trainers, which offers in-depth knowledge of the method. Michel and Matthias outline the four key pillars of the training: - Core Process and Seven Application Techniques: The fundamentals of the method, serving as the backbone of every workshop. - Workshop Design: Participants learn to create customized workshops tailored to specific needs. - Theoretical Background: Understanding the scientific foundations to apply the method flexibly and confidently. - Practical Application: Exercises, feedback, and hands-on facilitation opportunities to gain confidence in using the method. In conclusion, they emphasize that the training not only provides a variety of workshop designs as a "starter package" but also lays the foundation for long-term success as a facilitator. 💡 Tip: For German-speaking listeners, there is a complementary episode in the Enten-Talk podcast that also discusses LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® training.
