Build a LEGO nuclear reactor while learning Agile, Lean & project leadership. Improve coordination, reduce rework & deliver better projects.
About this Event

Large infrastructure and engineering projects involve complex coordination between teams, contractors, schedules, and quality requirements. Even experienced project teams often encounter challenges such as communication gaps, silo thinking, rushed starts, and rework.

This hands-on LEGO® Nuclear Reactor Simulation, based on real observations from complex energy and infrastructure projects, allows participants to experience these challenges and learn practical ways to overcome them.

During this interactive workshop, participants build a LEGO nuclear reactor while applying key project leadership approaches, including:

  • Agile Project Management
  • Lean Thinking
  • Six Sigma Quality
  • Change Management
  • Servant Leadership

Participants experience how better coordination, structured planning, and Agile execution dramatically improve project performance.
