The LEGO® Serious Play® (LSP) method is a designed facilitation and workshop method for serious cases where participants build LEGO models to answer questions asked by the workshop facilitator. In this paper, LSP method and process were presented in strong relationship with career planning for undergraduate students in Germany. The experiment was carried on for six sessions and the results of each study are presented and compared to identify the most suitable method to support career planning. The participants were asked to build up models based on decision-making processes, their goals and their individual guiding principles. Each participant responded to a question before and after the LSP workshops and their responses were compared qualitatively and quantitatively. At the end of the LSP sessions, the results present more complex and personalized statements, and therefore differ clearly from the answers before the workshops. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
