The splörk way of thinking and working is something we at pxd labs fully embrace. It means Serious Play at Work.  

​Serious Play is the application of playfulness and creativity in the workplace to achieve serious goals, such as the resolution of difficult issues or the improvement of team performance.  Our servIO and siglos workshops and applied programs all take this approach.  

Applying a carefully crafted, serious play experience is the best way to create a high-performing team or find a solution to a problem faced by a group.  We need to splörk it!

The LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® technique is one of the more well-known approaches, and we are trained to use it. 

Besides the previously mentioned examples, other Serious Play techniques include improv, interactive gamified activities, role-playing exercise, and many more. 

/ what is LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® ? The LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method (LSP) is a facilitated thinking, communication and problem solving technique for use with organisations, teams and individuals.​
