Building sustainable business solutions with serious Lego play

A free, monthly networking event continues this Friday (13 September) when businesspeople will be invited to flex their problem-solving skills via the medium of Lego.

Organised by South East Midlands Growth Hub, Network & Learn – Supporting Sustainable Development using Lego Serious Play (LSP), takes place at the University of Northampton between 09:00 and 12:30 on Friday.

The event has been organised in partnership with The University of Northampton and West Northamptonshire Council (WNC).

The University’s Al-Amin Dabo, Senior Lecturer in Logistics and Supply Chain Management, and Gosia Plotka, Lecturer in Project Management, Business Systems and Operations will be delivering the LSP workshop.

Al-Amin said: “LSP encourages people to think with their hands, to unlock subconscious levels of creativity and problem-solving ability. I hope people will walk away from it with knowledge and sustainable solutions they can implement to tackle real-world business challenges.”

In addition to the LSP workshop and networking opportunities, there will be updates from SEMLEP’s Growth Hub Business Support and WNC, and a speed pitch session giving participants 30 seconds to tell the audience about their business.
