Brick by Brick: Dismantling Conflict Patterns through LEGO® Serious Play®
In the high-stakes world of tackling climate change, effective leadership and collaboration are essential.
Yet many climate leaders find themselves trapped in unhelpful relationship patterns that undermine their impact and slow their progress.
This interactive online workshop introduces the powerful Drama Triangle framework, and uses LEGO® Serious Play® to help you identify and transform unhelpful dynamics in your professional relationships.
Who should attend:
We've designed this workshop for climate professionals, including:
Leaders, founders, and executives working in climate change
Team leaders and managers in climate organisations
Climate professionals navigating a complex work environment
Learning & development and engagement specialists looking to improve participation
Anyone seeking to improve their effectiveness in climate collaboration
What you'll experience:
Using LEGO® Serious Play®, you will:
Explore the three positions in the Drama Triangle (Victim, Rescuer, and Persecutor) and how they show up in your particular context
Identify your default patterns when facing conflict or challenges
Discover practical strategies to shift from drama to empowerment
Build tangible models representing your leadership challenges and solutions
Connect with other climate professionals in an authentic, reflective space
Why this matters for climate leadership:
Climate action requires us to collaborate in unprecedented ways: across sectors, organisations, and communities.
That means that how well we work together is a really critical part of the puzzle – but it’s not often talked about.
When leaders get caught in the Drama Triangle (and we all do, every day), progress stalls, communication is undermined, and opportunities for solutions are missed.
Breaking free from these patterns enables more effective leadership.
What to bring:
A computer with a camera and stable internet connection
A few handfuls of LEGO® bricks with as much variety as possible
Your openness to explore new perspectives through creative methods
Your facilitators:
We’re Megan Fraser (Future Led) and Lucy Hawthorne (Climate Play). We’re good friends, but we also bring complementary expertise in climate leadership development and innovative facilitation methods.
At Future Led, Megan is the architect of Leadership for Climate Pioneers®, where she helps climate executives and leaders to evolve their leadership, scale impact, and build a legacy they’re proud of.
At Climate Play, Lucy uses play-learning approaches to shake up and energise how we think, talk and act on complex issues, and she runs the world's only LEGO Serious Play training specifically focused on sustainability.
This event is part of a series of events during LCAW hosted by Climate Play and friends, exploring how the innovative method, LEGO® Serious Play®, can help stretch our imaginations and bring new ideas and reflections into the light.
