When was the last time your team left a workshop truly energized and aligned? LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® based workshops are not just another meeting — they are a scientifically-backed methodology that transforms how teams think, communicate and solve problems together.

Imagine a workshop where your team isn’t just talking, they’re building. Building ideas, building solutions, building stronger connections. Welcome to the world of LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® based training at efactory, where we take play seriously (seriously!).

Why use LEGO® Bricks?

It’s not child’s play — it’s serious business innovation. When we use our hands in strategic thinking, we express ideas more precisely and with greater depth. Those colorful LEGO® bricks become powerful tools for capturing complex business challenges and turning them into actionable solutions.

Develop Authentic Leaders. Build Leadership Presence. Drive Real Impact.

Leadership isn’t just about position—it’s about influence, vision, and the ability to navigate complexity while inspiring others. Our leadership development programs help current and emerging leaders:

Explore Your Leadership Identity:
  • What kind of leader are you today vs. who you want to become?
  • How do others experience your leadership style?
  • What values and principles guide your decisions?
  • Where do you thrive, and where do you need to grow?

Develop Core Leadership Capabilities:
  • Self-awareness – understand your strengths, blind spots, and impact on others
  • Communication skills – practice difficult conversations and inspire through storytelling
  • Decision-making – build frameworks for navigating uncertainty and complexity
  • Change leadership – develop skills to guide teams through transformation
  • Emotional intelligence – enhance your ability to connect with and motivate others

Ideal for high-potential employees, new managers, senior leaders, and anyone ready to step into greater leadership responsibility.

Create Strategies that Actually Work. Together.

You keep trying traditional methods of strategic planning and continually end up with the same results: plans that oversimplify reality and never see full implementation. Isn’t it time to build a strategy that works? Our workshops help you:

  • Map your ecosystem – visualize stakeholders, opportunities, and challenges
  • Test future scenarios – play out different possibilities before committing resources
  • Build shared understanding – ensure everyone truly gets the strategy
  • Create actionable plans – move from ideas to implementation with confidence

Whether you’re developing mission and vision, refining existing strategies, or planning operational execution, our workshops deliver strategies that stick.

Strategy Workshop Outcomes Include:
  • Mission, vision, and values alignment
  • Must-win priorities and focus areas
  • Risk analysis and preventive planning
  • Implementation roadmaps
  • Clear decision-making criteria

Ready to Experience the Difference?

Your team has the answers. We help you build them.
