About SPRK
At SPRK, we meet business challenges with the invigorating world of serious play. We thrive on the revolutionary idea that transformation comes from engaging with work in ways that are explorative and interactive. As facilitators of the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® methodology, we are pioneers in unlocking the latent potential within your organisation. Our philosophy is simple: playful engagement combined with strategic insights aimed at raising knowledge and driving transformation.

Founded by educators and pioneers in their respective fields, SPRK was conceived from a shared belief: that most enduring solutions emerge from a playful approach to serious business queries. Having been in education for over 15 years collectively, we soon realised the integration of the joy of play in learning and performing environments, but also the deep routed impact that occurs when play is combined with purpose. We envisioned a consultancy where these elements are not just balanced, but interwoven, creating a synergy that empowers organisations to innovate and excel. SPRK is the embodiment of that vision, transforming the consulting experience into one that is as impactful as it is enjoyable.
