More about the SUPERCONNECT® Method
The ultimate upgrade for LEGO® Serious Play®
SUPERCONNECT® optimises LEGO® Serious Play® for human connection, psychological safety, inclusivity, belonging trust and better conversations about the things that really matter.
We see connection and communication as outcomes in themselves. And since trust, belonging and human connection is foundational for everything else, they also become a way to supercharge the business outcomes of a standard LEGO® Serious Play® session.
Expand your offering with SUPERCONNECT®
SUPERCONNECT® sets you apart by enabling you to offer a wide range of powerful solutions for your client’s stickiest problems, by optimising LEGO® Serious Play® for psychological safety, trust, inclusion, belonging, human connection but most of all, enabling better conversations about difficult and important things.
LEGO® Serious Play® was originally developed by two European business professors and the LEGO® Group as a way of improving businesses and business outcomes, in particular around strategy and organisational development; team building; innovation and product development and change management. It was made available to the world under an open source license in 2010 It has been used by global megabrands like IKEA, Virgin and Samsung.
LEGO® Serious Play® is an incredibly powerful tool on its own. But it was not originally envisioned or optimised for people working in pairs, or very large groups or sessions limited to a short period of time, or guided by trauma informed principles and psychological safety… with trust, belonging, inclusion or human connection as a focus… or as outcomes in themselves. This is where the SUPERCONNECT® add-on comes in.
SUPERCONNECT® allows you to run play-based sessions of just an hour to connect and reconnect large groups of people, which is perfect for large conferences, interactive keynotes or off sites focused on human connection, belonging better conversations and mental wellness.
And with our unique SUPERCONNECT® module on psychological safety and trauma informed principles for facilitators, which was co-created by an award-winning accredited Mental Health First Aid Instructor, you can feel confident that you are providing a safe and supportive environment for your participants to authentically and within their boundaries and level of comfort.
This was by far one of the best team activities we have invested in. A game changer. There is so much we discovered during the session and it definitely brought the team closer together.
– Jo Harper, RUAH Community Services
With SUPERCONNECT®, you will be able to offer your clients:
Interactive sessions and keynotes at conferences, activating large audiences in just one hour.
Networking events where attendees make meaningful connections with a large number of people, all within one evening.
Turbocharge your standard LEGO® Serious Play® sessions, such as strategy development or team building, where outcomes are further enhanced because participants show up more authentically, are more engaged, but most of all feel safe enough to have those tricky conversations about what really matters.
SUPERCONNECT® LEGO® Serious Play®
SUPERCONNECT® distils the power of Serious Play® to its essence – its ability to create safe spaces, build trust, boost communication, create deep understanding and clarity. Bringing in cutting edge research from the fields of neuroscience, psychology, anthropology and game studies, SUPERCONNECT® builds on this power to enable better conversations about difficult and important things in a way that feels easy and safe.
Using the familiarity, comfort, fun and playfulness of LEGO bricks, the SUPERCONNECT® method offers a proven, evidence-based method to quickly and safely create trust, understanding and connection between people of all ages and backgrounds while gaining deep insight and clarity around issues that require input from many voices.
Through carefully crafted, intentional questions combined with the magic of play and LEGO, SUPERCONNECT® enables individuals, groups and teams of all sizes to playfully and safely explore thoughts, feelings, experiences, challenges, obstacles and even hopes and dreams by building and sharing together.
The power of the process is that it provides participants with unlocked awareness and insight into themselves and others. SUPERCONNECT® gets people past the superficial, and into adventuring together into what really matters.
Whether you want to gather deep insights from stakeholders or ignite curiosity and joy in your event attendees, SUPERCONNECT® is the secret ingredient for superconnecting, supercreating and supercollaborating in this new future.
It was amazing to see how the energy level of the room changed… SUPERCONNECT® allowed the students to connect on a completely different level – allowing them to jump over cultural, language, interpersonal boundaries and enter a world of creativity they had no idea could exist… it introduced a sense of connectiveness within the class and stimulated engagement in learning.

A note about LEGO® Serious Play®
As LEGO® Serious Play® is now an open source method, The LEGO Group does not offer an official certification program in the method. Like all LEGO® Serious Play® trainings around the world, this one is not endorsed or sponsored by the LEGO Group. The LEGO Group does encourage people to get properly trained in the method (in programs like this one), but they do not endorse any particular providers. This is also why we offer SUPERCONNECT® Conversation Specialist Certification as an extra layer of credibility and authority for you and for your clients by setting you apart from other LEGO® Serious Play® facilitators.
