We dive into Katie's career path from political campaigns and higher education to leadership coaching, and explore her Power of Listening Framework—the AIR Methodology: Attention, Intention, and Recognition. Katie shares how listening well is one of the most powerful tools leaders have to build trust, increase engagement, and demonstrate respect. We also discuss how she uses LEGO Serious Play to unlock team vulnerability and build connection in a playful but profound way. --- Make People Feel Heard with Katie O'Malley Good day, dear listeners, Steve Preda here with the Management Blueprint Podcast. And my guest today is Katie O'Malley, the founder of (en)Courage Coaching. She has helped over 200 leaders and leadership teams prevent toxic workspace experiences and create cultural transformations across the US and the UK. Katie, welcome to the show. Steve, thank you so much for having me. I'm delighted to be here and really eager for our conversation and to be helpful to your audience. I'm sure you will be very helpful. You bring a different perspectives than what we had, the previous 300 guests, so definitely very interesting. But let's start with my favorite question, which is, what is your personal “Why” and what are you doing to manifest it in your practice? Absolutely. So my personal “Why” goes all the way back to when I was in college studying political science. I have always wanted to make a positive impact in the world, the communities that I'm a part of, the connections and the relationships that I have. And that thread has pulled throughout my entire career, whether it was working on political campaigns and nonprofit organizations or in higher education. And eventually what I realized is I had this kind of itch for small business ownership, entrepreneurship, having the agency and autonomy to work the way that I wanted to work and took that, combined it with my “Why” of really helping folks at the intersection of mental health and work. It's where we spend eight, 10, 12 hours of our day. And to think that it doesn't have an impact on how we move through the world or our overall well-being is bonkers. And so I spend my days really helping folks to align their strengths, talents, and values with the roles and organizations that they're pursuing.Share on X And also working on the other side of the equation, on the employer side of the equation, training up their leaders to do no harm to their teams and employees throughout the workday. And so, yeah, my “Why” is how do we help people have, at worst, a net neutral experience in their workday and at best, a workday that elevates their life outside of work. Yeah, I mean, it's a huge thing and a lot of companies don't realize that they have these employees in the company and if they are happy, they're going to be much more productive. They are going to project a much better impression of the company to the outside world. They are going to make their customers happier. So it's really worth investing in improving the mental health and the happiness of the people in the company. That's a big lever that you're pulling there. So let's take this as a good pivot point because we are podcasting on frameworks, as you know, and our listeners know. I'm always on the hunt for a good framework that someone has discovered. What you do definitely is an important topic. You talk about the empathy, you have background in counseling. So you came up with a framework called the Power of Listening Framework, and I would love it for you to explain why it's important and how does it work with our listeners? Yeah. So I call it the AIR Methodology. A stands for attention, I stands for intention, R stands for recognition.

Prima o poi dovevamo farlo: immergerci nell'universo dei mattoncini più famosi al mondo!In questo episodio speciale del Triangolo Nerdangolo Podcast, insieme a Francesco Frangioja, Lego Ambassador e Certified Facilitator di LEGO® Serious Play, esploriamo l'evoluzione di un brand che ha saputo unire generazioni.

In this podcast, host Dr Anna Volkmer explores the use of Lego Serious Play as a research tool / methodology in dementia and neurodegenerative disease studies. Traditionally used in therapy and organisational development, Lego Serious Play is now finding its way into the research world—helping researchers, participants, and stakeholders express complex ideas, foster collaboration, and build deeper insights (literally and metaphorically). Anna is joined by a panel of expert guests: Dr Warren Donnellan, University of Liverpool – a trained facilitator of Lego Serious Play who applies it to resilience and carer research. Dr Alys Griffiths, University of Sheffield – who has integrated the method into dementia studies and her work in Motor Neuron Disease. Dr Joe Langley, Sheffield Hallam University – known for combining design thinking and participatory research methods, including Lego Serious Play, in health and care settings. Together, they explore the origins, applications, and benefits of this playful method, share case studies, and reflect on how building with Lego can break down communication barriers and empower participants—particularly those with dementia. -- Topics covered:

Patrick und Jörg diskutieren über die ideale Gestaltung von Workshops und die Nutzung von Personas. LEGO Serious Play ist eine Möglichkeit, Workshops interaktiver zu gestalten. Aber haben Mitarbeiter heute überhaupt noch die Energie und die Zeit sich in Workshops in solche Methoden einzuarbeiten und diese zu nutzen? Es braucht auch immer Zeit für das Lernen. Wenn solche Methoden eingesetzt werden, besteht schnell die Gefahr, dass zu viel Zeit für die Methodennutzung verbraucht wird, anstelle des eigentlichen Themas. Personas schliesst an die Folgen Segmentierung und Statistik an. Diese Form der Segmentierung ist in den letzten 15 Jahren mit dem Thema Customer Experience / UX Design sehr populär geworden. Schaut man hinter die Kulissen, meist, weil sie sehr günstig ist in der Datengewinnung im Vergleich zu anderen Methoden. Darüber hinaus ist auch zu kritisieren, dass die Personabeschreibungen in der Praxis meist wieder nur auf soziodemographische Daten und wenn überhaupt Lebensstildaten aufbauen. Bedürfnisse, Kundenwert, Zahlungsbereitschaft und andere wertvolle Kundendaten werden gerade bei der Personaerstellung meist vergessen. Auch ist kaum ein Unternehmen in der Lage, die Personas im Alltag zu nutzen. Somit bleibt es eine strategische Methode mit vielen Gefahren, die vor allem auszeichnet, dass sie günstiger ist als andere Methoden.  Wertvolle Erkenntnisse, wie immer aus der Sendeanstalt Beromünster.

Ep.213 - Nous rencontrons Robert Rasmussen, co-inventeur du LEGO Serious Play, qui nous explique comment cette méthode encourage les groupes à réfléchir et à communiquer ensemble. Il souligne l'importance de l'apprentissage constructiviste et de l'expérience personnelle dans le processus de jeu sérieux. Robert Rasmussen discute également des obstacles à l'acceptation du jeu sérieux dans les organisations et met en avant l'importance de maximiser l'intelligence collective pour résoudre des problèmes complexes. Il conclut en offrant des conseils aux décideurs pour favoriser l'engagement individuel dans un monde de plus en plus complexe.Robert RasmussenRobert Rasmussen est né au Danemark et est titulaire d'une maîtrise en éducation de l'École royale danoise d'éducation de Copenhague. Il a passé sa carrière à appliquer des théories et des expériences sur le jeu, l'apprentissage, la créativité et l'enseignement au développement organisationnel. Pendant 15 ans, il a beaucoup travaillé avec des concepteurs et des chercheurs de l'université Tufts à Medford MA et du MIT Media Lab à Boston MA, pour développer et appliquer des outils d'apprentissage pratique. Robert Rasmussen est le principal architecte de la méthode LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® depuis 1999. Après plusieurs années et plus de 20 itérations, son équipe et lui ont développé le concept pour en faire la méthodologie reproductible et robuste qu'elle est aujourd'hui. Il a travaillé pour le groupe LEGO de 1988 à 2001 en tant que responsable de la R&D pour LEGO Education et a notamment dirigé l'équipe de développement éducatif pour LEGO MINDSTORMS - le produit le plus vendu de l'histoire de la société LEGO. De 2001 à 2004, Robert a dirigé Executive Discovery Ltd. qui a développé et lancé le programme LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®.À retenirLEGO Serious Play n'est pas un jeu, mais une technique de communication.Nous sommes conscients de seulement 5 à 10 % de nos connaissances.Le but est de maximiser les insights et la confiance dans les décisions.Les individus doivent se sentir partie d'un tout pour s'engager.Il est essentiel d'écouter les individus pour maximiser l'engagement.Le flow doit être un peu flou pour encourager l'exploration.Le LEGO permet de construire sans stress, favorisant la créativité.Il existe des résistances culturelles au jeu sérieux dans certaines organisations.Maximiser le potentiel collectif est crucial pour résoudre des problèmes complexes.Les décideurs doivent impliquer les individus dans le processus décisionnel.Autres épisodes à écouterÉpisode 132: Les clés des “Serious Games” avec Marie DupontÉpisode 172: Deep Dive sur les objets-médiateurs avec Frédéric RousseauÉpisode 211: L'innovation par le jeu avec Baptiste Sand Épisode 104: Du changement à la mutation des organisations avec David AutissierAccédez aux notes ici: https://www.intelliaconsulting.com/podcastSuivez-nous: Développez votre impact stratégique - Abonnez-vous à notre lettre hebdomadaire Visitez notre page LinkedIn Visitez notre page YouTube

We also explored how social skills are critical in today's workplace—many people feel overwhelmed and struggle to manage their workload effectively. Embracing Diverse Communication and Cultural Nuances Communication in a diverse workplace isn't just about words—it's about understanding the meaning behind them. Monika emphasized the need to strike a balance between positivity and tough conversations, as well as the importance of reading between the lines in different cultural contexts. I completely agreed. Clear communication is key, but so is recognizing cultural nuances. Personally, I appreciate direct communication and love using humor as a tool—even if it doesn't always land perfectly. We both agreed that embracing these differences leads to stronger collaboration and better teamwork. Fostering a Healthy Workplace Culture We also explored what it takes to build a thriving workplace culture—one where people feel connected and supported. Monika highlighted the importance of playfulness and fun at work, even bringing up how something as simple as Lego can spark creativity. That said, there's a balance—some industries require a more structured approach. We also touched on the insights from The Culture Map, discussing how different cultural dimensions influence workplace interactions. At the end of the day, considering different perspectives makes for a more productive and enjoyable work environment. Building Trust in Diverse Workplaces Trust is the foundation of any great workplace. When leaders and employees trust each other, they can create better products and services that make a real impact. I emphasized how crucial it is for leaders to foster that trust—because without it, everything else falls apart. Monika added that trust-building requires awareness of cultural differences and individual needs. It's all about open communication, self-awareness, and a conscious approach to understanding those we work with. When we get this right, we create workplaces where people feel valued, heard, and truly connected.  

In dieser besonderen Folge vom Enten-Talk melden wir uns live aus der Messe München, mitten im Getümmel der E-Mail Innovations World 2025 – der Hotspot für E-Mail-Marketing! Doch diesmal wird's anders: Statt langweiliger Vorträge und steifer Sitzreihen haben wir LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® am Start! Zusammen mit unserem Gastgeber Tobias Eikelpasch, dem Programmdirektor der Konferenz, tauchen wir ein in die Frage: Warum bringt man LEGO®-Steine auf eine Fachkonferenz? Klingt verrückt? Ist es auch – aber auf die genialste Art und Weise! Du erfährst: • Wie LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® zum ultimativen Icebreaker wurde – und was es mit 170 kreativen Köpfen anrichtete. • Wie wir es geschafft haben, in nur 40 Minuten tiefe Verbindungen zu schaffen – zwischen Menschen, die sich vorher nicht mal kannten. • Was die Teilnehmenden mitnehmen und warum die Methode so positiv in Erinnerung bleibt. Freu dich auf spannende Insights, lustige Momente und einen völlig neuen Blick auf Konferenzen! Klick rein und lass dich von der kreativen Energie mitreißen – denn langweilig kann jeder!

LEGO ist nur ein Spielzeug? Nicht ganz. Mit den bunten Steinen lassen sich nicht nur Häuser und Autos bauen, sondern auch Gedanken, Ideen und sogar Strategien. Genau darum geht es bei **LEGO Serious Play** – einer Methode, die komplexe Themen sichtbar macht und neue Perspektiven eröffnet. Statt nur zu reden, wird gebaut. Und das verändert alles. Kerstin Müller ist LEGO Serious Play Facilitatorin und nimmt mich mit in diese Welt. Wir testen live, wie sich Gedanken durch die Hände formen und was passiert, wenn man dem Kopf mal eine Pause gönnt. Es geht um Kreativität, Klarheit und die Kraft des spielerischen Denkens. Am Ende landen wir dort, wo meine Welt beginnt: beim Podcast. Denn auch Interviews profitieren davon, wenn man Strukturen baut, anstatt sie nur zu planen. Eine Folge für alle, die neugierig sind – und bereit, ihre Ideen in Stein zu meißeln. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Some people see a city as streets, buildings, and infrastructure. Troy Innocent sees it as a playground.A BMX-riding, LEGO-city-building, world-maker from childhood, Troy never stopped playing. But instead of keeping it to himself, he turned his playful instinct into The Future Play Lab.At RMIT, Troy is transforming how people interact with public spaces through speculative design, urban play, Indigenous knowledge and augmented reality experiences like 64 Ways of Being. From risky play in childhood to playful interventions in cityscapes, Troy and The Future Play Lab are proving that play isn't just fun; it's how we reimagine the world. ______________________Hello there!We're Dr. Jane Hession and Ronan Healy. We're a husband and wife team and co-founders of the service design studio How Might We -⁠ ⁠www.howmightwe.design⁠⁠ We're passionate about Serious Play and provide online, in-house training in the LEGO Serious Play method worldwide. Please say hello, if you would like to bring the LEGO method to your organisation.We also do in-person training across Ireland and the UK⁠ ⁠www.howmightwe.design/lego-serious-play-ireland⁠⁠ ______________________Troy who? Dr Innocent (he/they) is an urban play scholar, artist, game maker and Director of the future play lab at RMIT University in Narrm Melbourne. The lab develops socially engaged and site-responsive urban play connecting experimental game design, public space, posthuman methods, and creative technologies. Working with the city as a material, their approach to reworlding develops posthuman methods that reimagine, reconfigure and reconnect with the world. This involves transdisciplinary practices across design, sculpture, animation, sound, light and installation using methods of multiplatform storytelling that connect objects with their environment to build speculative worlds that playfully defamiliarise and disrupt urban life.Troy has 25 years of experience in gallery-based exhibitions, symposia and site-specific projects, developing augmented reality games that blend physical objects with digital interfaces to reimagine everyday urban environments in playful ways, situating his work in Aarhus, Melbourne, Bristol, Barcelona, Istanbul, Ogaki, Sydney, Tampere and Hong Kong. They are the creator of 64 Ways of Being, an urban adventure platform combining audio walks and mixed realities to situate players in new experiences of place.Contact DetailsEmailtroy.innocent@rmit.edu.auLinkedin https://www.linkedin.com/in/troy-innocent/ Website http://futureplaylab.io Twitter @playablemelbAdditional Resources https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernie_De_Koven https://direct.mit.edu/books/monograph/2338/Critical-PlayRadical-Game-Design https://www.dukeupress.edu/staying-with-the-trouble https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carolyn_Briggs https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Making-the-Case-for-Playful-Learning-Ilgaz-Hassinger-Das/142f7fb1e64d444e053eda974860ac7711127de7 Timestamps(0:00) - Dr. Troy Innocent(2:15) - Troy's Childhood and Early Play Experiences(5:03) - Risky Play: How It Shapes Identity(6:58) - Advice to Younger Self: Balancing Playfulness and Seriousness(9:50) - The Role of Intuition in Play and Creativity(13:19) - Striking a Balance Between Seriousness and Playfulness at Work(18:04) - Adult Playfulness: Breaking Clichés and Misconceptions(24:45) - How Urban Play Inspires New Ways of Thinking About the Future(29:25) - Hopeful Play: A Tool for Social and Ecological Change(35:01) - Exploring Melbourne's Hidden Histories Through Play and AR(39:41) - 64 Ways of Being: Augmented Reality and Storytelling(42:10) - Lego Build: How Troy's Work Helps People See the World Differently(47:00) - Playlabs as a Catalyst for Change in Academia(50:34) - Entangling People in Creative Ways of Thinking

We welcomed Lego Serious Play facilitator and Stories Love Music team member, Loretta Veney onto the podcast! We hear her powerful story about how Lego helped build a bridge between her and her mother when she was diagnosed with dementia. When Loretta joined forces with Stories Love Music we dreamed up the idea of a Creative Engagement: Empowering Caregiver Symposium and we just produced our first one in October 2024 in Ocean CIty, Maryland. We speak about how amazing it was to provide a space and creative experience for caregivers to relax and create. One of the symposium highlights was our collaborative session of Lego and Live Music. We take some time to describe the benefits of this multi-sensory session and how it can affect the mental and emotional health of our caregivers.

Epi #48 Cómo tener un propósito nutre la vida – Carlos FernándezDoria PresentaHISTORIAS QUE NUTRENDescubre los temas que nutren tu vida a través de historias de personas que aportan a tu bienestar físico, personal, espiritual y profesionalFrecuencia: mensualDuración promedio: 30 minutosEn este episodio de nuestro podcast “Historias Que Nutren”, el coach Carlos Fernández, más conocido como “Café” nos cuenta cómo encontrar tu propósito de vida“Café” es Conferencista y consultor internacional con un enfoque en desarrollo de habilidades blandas. Master en Neurociencia, certificación en el Disney Institute así como en LEGO Serious Play.Autor de tres libros sobre liderazgo y desarrollo personal. Nuestro invitado trabaja en la comprensión del pensamiento y las emociones para explicar cómo se relacionan con el éxito empresarial y el bienestar de las personas. En este episodio nos hablará sobre:-    Su definición de propósito-    ¿Importa el tamaño del propósito?-     ¿Cómo encontrar el propósito?-     El amor y el servicio en el propósito-    La importancia de la acción-     ¿Cómo motivar a alguien que tiene obstáculos para lograr su propósito?-     La creación de posibilidades para el propósito-     La importancia de hacerse cargo    Cómo conectarse con Carlos FernándezCómo tener un propósito de vida: una aventura personalEl interrogante sobre Cómo tener un propósito de vida suele surgir en momentos cruciales o durante etapas importantes de nuestro crecimiento personal o profesional. Este cuestionamiento es sin duda una búsqueda esencial que puede aportar significado y dirección a nuestra existencia. Muchas veces, se percibe el propósito como algo grandioso y reservado solo para unos pocos elegidos. Sin embargo, descubrir tu propósito de vida es una experiencia íntima y personal que no necesariamente debe parecerse a la de los demás ni tener un impacto monumental en el mundo. Hallar tu propósito se trata más de identificar lo que te apasiona, algo que resuene con tus valores y que beneficie a quienes te rodean, incluso si solo son las personas cercanas a ti.Para entender cómo encontrar un propósito de vida, es crucial identificar las actividades que nos inspiran y nos hacen sentir plenos. También es importante considerar qué temas despiertan nuestro interés de manera natural. En este sentido, nuestros talentos pueden ofrecer pistas valiosas. Por ejemplo, si disfrutas de ayudar a otros y posees habilidades comunicativas, es posible que tu propósito esté relacionado con el trabajo en el ámbito social o el coaching.Para saber cómo tener un propósito de vida, también es fundamental examinar los valores que orientan nuestras decisiones y acciones. Reflexionar sobre principios como la justicia, la creatividad, la honestidad o la empatía y cómo influyen en nuestra vida cotidiana es crucial para establecer prioridades y orientar nuestro camino hacia un propósito claro. La clave está en integrar estos valores de manera más profunda en nuestras actividades y objetivos. Encontrar un propósito que esté en sintonía con tus valores permite vivir una vida más auténtica y satisfactoria.La relación entre las metas significativas y el cómo tener un propósito de vidaEl propósito de vida no siempre se revela de inmediato. No obstante, fijar metas significativas puede acercarnos a él. Estas metas deben ser desafiantes y alinearse con nuestras pasiones y valores. Establecer objetivos brinda una dirección clara y permite medir nuestro progreso hacia la realización del propósito. En este proceso, la intuición juega un papel crucial en la búsqueda de cómo encontrar un propósito de vida. La introspección y la atención a nuestra voz interior son esenciales. Prácticas como la meditación, la reflexión o llevar un diario ayudan a conectar con nuestros sentimientos más profundos y a descubrir lo que verdaderamente nos impulsa. La intuición puede ofrecer una guía valiosa y ayudar a clarificar nuestros deseos y aspiraciones.HISTORIAS QUE NUTREN es una realización de la marca DoriaProduce www.milpalabras.com.coDoria, Pastas Doria, Historias, Historias Que Nutren, Mil Palabras, Santiago Ríos, Carlos Fernández, Propósito, Café, Propósito De Vida, Felicidad, Plenitud, Metas, Autoayuda, Superación Personal, Desarrollo Personal

Unser heutiger Gast hat sich voll und ganz der Mission verschrieben, die Arbeitswelt spielerisch zu revolutionieren. Geboren und aufgewachsen in Deutschland, begann er nach einem Abstecher bei der Bundeswehr seine akademische Laufbahn mit einem Fokus auf Betriebswirtschaftslehre und Entrepreneurship. Heute ist er Dozent an der Hochschule Fresenius und teilt seine Erfahrungen aus diversen Gründungen mit seinen Studenten. Seine Arbeit ist von der Überzeugung geprägt, dass Arbeit Spaß machen, inspirieren und jeden Tag aufs Neue erfüllen sollte. Im Rahmen seiner Haupttätigkeit als Gründer von HelloAgile unterstützt er Menschen und Organisationen dabei, die Prinzipien der neuen Arbeitswelt zu verstehen und anzuwenden. Dabei setzt er auf innovative Methoden wie Scrum, OKR und LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®, um Teams in die Welt der Agilität zu führen und New Work erlebbar zu machen. Er teilt seine praxisnahen und hochwertigen Inhalte rund um die Themen Agilität und New Work über seinen Podcast Unboxing Agil, auf dem HelloNew Youtube-Kanal, in Blogbeiträgen und auf LinkedIn. Sein Buch "PLAY! Der unverzichtbare LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® Praxis-Guide" wurde bereits über 3.000 Mal verkauft und es erscheint nun in einer zweiten Auflage. Als Speaker inspiriert er seine Zuhörer mit motivierenden Vorträgen zu zeitgemäßen Arbeitsformen und den Wegen zu nachhaltiger Agilität und New Work. Seine Erfahrungen und Erkenntnisse teilt er auf Konferenzen und Veranstaltungen, um Menschen zu ermutigen, Arbeit neu zu denken. Seit mehr als 7 Jahren haben wir uns in nun schon 436 Folgen mit weit mehr als 500 Menschen darüber unterhalten, was sich für sie beim Thema Arbeit geändert hat und was sich weiter ändern muss. Wir sind uns ganz sicher, dass es gerade jetzt wichtig ist. Denn die Idee von “New Work” wurde während einer echten Krise entwickelt. Welche Rolle kann Lego Serious Play auf dem Weg zu einer besseren Arbeitswelt spielen? Und wie genau geht denn das nun, was unser Gast: “Denken mit den Händen” nennt? Wir suchen nach Methoden, Vorbildern, Erfahrungen, Tools und Ideen, die uns dem Kern von New Work näher bringen! Darüber hinaus beschäftigt uns von Anfang an die Frage, ob wirklich alle Menschen das finden und leben können, was sie im Innersten wirklich, wirklich wollen. Ihr seid bei "On the Way to New Work" - heute zum zweiten mal mit David Hillmer. #NewWork #onthewaytonewwork #blackboat #legoseriousplay #newworkmasterskills #HelloAgile [Hier](https://linktr.ee/onthewaytonewwork) findet ihr alle Links zum Podcast und unseren aktuellen Werbepartnern

Post's book The Moral Challenge of Alzheimer's Disease (Johns Hopkins University Press) was designated a “medical classic of the 20th century” by the British Medical Journal (2009), whose editors wrote, “Until this pioneering work was published in 1995 the ethical aspects of one of the most important illnesses of our aging populations were a neglected topic.” Post is recipient of the Alzheimer's Association national distinguished service award “in recognition of personal and professional outreach to the Alzheimer's Association Chapters on ethics issues important to people with Alzheimer's and their families.”   Loretta Woodward Veney: Loretta Woodward Veney is an inspirational speaker and certified LEGO® Serious Play® facilitator who offers a wealth of information, encouragement, and humor to her audiences.
