Using Lego, and the creativity involved in its freestyle construction, team members are able to express themselves more honestly and openly. By playing with a children's toy in a serious, professional environment, participants can more easily lower the shields of adult pride and decorum that might ordinarily inhibit frank self-assessment and thus genuine self-improvement.

After an introduction, show the participants a warm-up model as an example for things they might create themselves. Members are then given ten minutes in which to build a Lego model that represents their last sprint. Following this, ask the group to share and discuss their models, interpreting the emotions that they have expressed while at play.
 
−
Next, they have another ten minutes to build a new model, this time of an idealized sprint. Afterwards is another period of sharing and discussion, before a final ten minute session in which the group reflects on what they can commit to do differently in future, as a team or as individuals.
