Organisation Design 1° Italian Meetup

On October 25th, in partnership with the EODF (European Organisation Design Forum), we held the first Italian Organisation Design meetup in our headquarters based in Rome. The idea was to organise an event in which to share thoughts and knowledge, exchange experiences, explore the status of Organization Design in Italy and discuss the latest international trends. We proposed the idea on our personal social channels to find out if there was interest about this topic and from which cities, in order to choose the most convenient location for everyone. Definitely,

LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® is a method that enables constructive reflection and dialogue processes. During a structured process, participants use LEGO bricks to create models that express their thoughts, reflections and ideas.

The LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® methodology offers a sophisticated means for a group to share ideas, assumptions and understandings; to engage in rich dialogue and discussion; and to work out meaningful solutions to real problems.

Building upon the inclusive and participatory nature of the LEGO System, LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® rejects the idea that external ‘experts’ must be brought in to identify problems, and to propose solutions; on the contrary, LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® begins with the assumption that the answers are ‘already in the room’, and invites participants to ‘think with their hands’ to build their understandings. Every member of the team participates, and everyone has a voice.

The Rory’s Story Cubes® are nine cubes with images on every face. You can give them a good shake, roll them out, and start storytelling using the pictures.

They are a very simple but powerful tool currently used in many countries and different areas.

Cubes main strength is the possibility to inspect deeply any kind of issue and, thanks to the power of images, create a shared vision of the topic.

They enable persons and groups to conversate and cocreate.

In the first place, our idea is to use them in two first scopes.
The first one is helping people in the discovering and evolution of their professional identity.
The second one is focused on designing new agile retrospectives for team continuous improvement.

So, we are working in the development of new Rory’s Story Cubes® practices.
