Coaching Made Visible
With Vics Bradley, Lead Master Trainer at SERIOUSWORK and expert PCC Coach.
Specialising in LEGO® Serious Play® within professional coaching.
Coaching relies on conversation. But some of what your client knows, they can't yet say. LEGO® Serious Play® makes it visible.
SERIOUSWORK coaching training is accredited by the ICF for 7 CCEs!
Coaching has a thinking problem…
We’ve over-relied on conversation in coaching. It’s time to show clients how to think with their hands.
Is coaching in 3D the future ?
Externalisation
The model creates distance between the person and their experience, so they can look at what could previously only be felt.
Embodied cognition
Building is thinking. The hands access what language alone can't reach.
Third-Point Communication
The conversation flows through the model, not between people. Defences drop.
Perspective shifting
A physical model can be rotated, repositioned, and seen from angles that a conversation never offers.
The Book
Learn to Coach with the LEGO® Serious Play® method.
A practical guide for professional coaches exploring LEGO® Serious Play® in their practice. Discover real case studies, coaching frameworks and connections to ICF competencies in Vics Bradley’s forthcoming book.

About
Master Coach. Coach trainer. Author.
Vics is known for her work integrating LEGO® Serious Play® into professional coaching practice. Her approach challenges the traditional reliance on conversation in coaching, introducing more embodied, visual, and cognitive ways of working with clients.
Through her training and methodology, she helps coaches externalise their clients' thinking, work with metaphor, and access deeper levels of insight and change. Her coaching operates at mastery level, grounded in presence, emergence, and deep listening rather than frameworks alone.
Vics holds ICF PCC accreditation and is trained to ICF Level 3 (Coach Mastery). She is Lead Master Trainer with SERIOUSWORK, the global leader in LEGO® Serious Play® training.
Alongside her coaching work, she has spent over two decades building and advising businesses, bringing a strong commercial lens to everything she does. This allows her to bridge the gap between deep coaching and real-world application, helping clients not only think better, but act more effectively.
Her upcoming book, Learn to Coach with the LEGO® Serious Play® Method, shares the method as a legitimate coaching modality and maps it against ICF professional standards. It draws on real case studies from practising coaches around the world and covers individual, group, team, and programme-based coaching.
Frequently Asked Questions
Some of the most commonly asked questions. Visit the FAQs page for the full list.
-
Think of it as giving your client a second language. Instead of only talking about what they're experiencing, they build it. The bricks become metaphors. A wall might represent a boundary. A figure placed at a distance might surface something about trust. The coach doesn't interpret the model. The client does. Every brick holds the meaning the builder gives it, and that's where the depth lives.
I use LEGO® Serious Play® as one tool within my coaching practice. It sits alongside everything else in my toolkit: deep listening, powerful questioning, presence. The bricks don't replace coaching. They enhance it.
-
LEGO® Serious Play® was born as a facilitation method for strategy and team alignment. It's brilliant at that.
But coaching is a different discipline. We don't plan build questions in advance. We don't drive toward a predetermined output. We partner with the client in real time, and the bricks arrive when they're needed, not because they're next on the agenda.
A facilitator owns the structure. A coach holds the space. That changes everything about how the method is used.
-
Coaching training teaches you to hold the bricks within a coaching conversation, which requires a different set of skills to facilitation. You need to know when to invite the client to build, when to stay with words, and how to ask questions about a model without interpreting it for the client.
