HI, did you know, that today is WORLD-PLAY-DAY?<br />
This were some people in Germany who created it last year (does the world know that?) and there's an invitation for today to play at surprising/unusual places to encourage others (and us ;) ) and to raise awareness.<br />
<br />
So, what could we play today?<br />

Play is also play with the focus of attention, everything we do as if.<br />
Not only my stupid bubble shooter on internet ;) or all the wonderful games we discuss in this group.<br />
And maybe the common distinction between play and work is a less useful misunderstanding anyway.<br />
<br />
So let’s play today (,too).<br />

This is a game i learned from Hans Fluri (some of you maybe remember him from the Interlaken conference) and which i started to use to “train” the people during a teamcoaching/change process, that they can recognise the positive changes afterwards which might be small and inconspicuous.<br />
The game is fun, short and partly silent; a usual effect is also refreshed concentration...<br />

This is a game i learned from Hans Fluri (some of you maybe remember him from the Interlaken conference) and which i started to use to “train” the people during a teamcoaching/change process, that they can recognise the positive changes afterwards which might be small and inconspicuous.<br />
The game is fun, short and partly silent; a usual effect is also refreshed concentration...<br />
So i tell something about small changes and that they need our focus of attention to be recognised and not overlooked. I ask the team members to sit (or stand) in pairs facing each other in a distance of ca 1 meter. I ask them to freeze the own position and memorize it, also the position and details of the person opposite to them. After 30 seconds i ask them to turn around and make 5 changes: 2 at the cloths and accessories, 3 at the position of their bodies. When all the players are ready, they turn back and try to find the small changes on each other.<br />
Mostly i make a second round to train the awareness for even smaller changes.<br />
At the end of the coaching session i only need to make a remark on their capability to observe small desired changes others make in the organisation. Games as Toolstag:solworld.org,2009-03-10:2102269:Topic:127942009-03-10T17:36:42.697ZHans-Peter Kornhttp://solworld.org/profile/HansPeterKorn

It works like this: the group is divided into several small groups. They are distributed in each table the rules of the game but contain a different rule for each table. After a round of games people are mixed between the tables and can not speak.<br />

<b>The <a href="http://www.solutionstage.com/">SolutionStage®</a> is a "staging room" to install and try out different versions of "realistic models" for working environments in organisations in a Solution Focused way. Such "productions on stage" could be test-environments how different versions of strategic products or services will be seen and accepted in future by clients. Such "productions on stage" also could serve to create and test different typical settings of communications (with customers, managers with subordinates, within project teams) or different versions for work processes.<br />
</b><br />
The core entities of these productions are the persons working in the company (not professional actors) acting as different "figures" (i.e. as clients). The figures and stories are not predefined (as it is done in most of the "role trainings") but are created by the acting persons. During the improvised performance they are supported by a coach as a "stage director". This coaching director is not the "author". He is only responsible, that the "performance is going on". The acting persons are in a Solution Focused sense the experts, owners and inventors of the performance and the "libretto".<br />
